      I'd say it had a dirty great steel plate covering the top instead of the container mountings. It's being used as an adapter for dragging EMU's about. I wonder if any of the containers survive anywhere?

      I think there may be some real L type containers somewhere....I am pretty sure of that, but cannot remember where....Nene Valley? I think they have some Conflats?

  16. It's always difficult at first time introductions but i think the Tyer & Co key token balancing gate and magazine are going to get along just fine with the gate i have made by The railway Signal Co.

      No filming but i had to take ten new tablets to make them work..

  24. The garden looked dull and damp. I've lit all the oil lamps on the signals i can see from the house. Much better.
