    4. Stubby47

      Stubby47

      Thanks all ! I'm now the proud owner of 5513 (4575 class of which 5514 was based at Truro in the correct time frame), a second Dapol GWR Home signal and a pair of Dapol wagons - a GWR Ale wagon and a 4 plank with wood load.

      All of these will be appearing on Shepherds Halt in the near future...

       

  19. wants to know how the GWR built Halt platforms - constructional drawings would be great if anyone has them.

      Is that Volume 1 & 2 in a series of 27 by Water Fowl publications, at a cost of £47.99 per volume?

      2nd module still has big gaps in the scenery, no backscene and is not fully wired. 3rd module is not wired at all, but is mostly sceniced. Need to complete the cables and make the bridges, but can't find enough fishplates...

  25. If you're intending to bring some stock to run on the Module Project on Sunday, please can you let me know (roughly) what it will be ?
