  1. Bressingham Hall apparently. Now stored in Switzerland. (I had to look it up)
  2. Just looking at the Dinting shots from 1971, I don’t think I have seen that many Ford Anglia’s in one place at the same time. A lot of cars in the images that have long since rusted away. I wonder in another 52 years people will get all nostalgic looking at images from 2023, with Hybrids or all electric cars the same.
  3. Pride of the Summer -Runrig

    EBay madness

    I am fairly sure these were cast (Plaster?) static models produced under license. Have a look here https://picclick.co.uk/Hornby-Steam-Memories-Doverdale-Design-Model-Train-SR-185878058849.html
  5. If you click on the image it links to Flickr. It says it’s Aberystwyth
  6. I saw the Harrogate Peckett a few weeks ago at Statfold and it still appears as per the colour photo above. The other Harrogate gasworks loco, Barber is still in that condition, but the South Tynedale Railway are looking to alter the cab shape for crew comfort. This has met with a lot of opposition from the purists. https://www.facebook.com/southtynedalerailway/photos/a.415546715191805/3765711580175285/?type=3 photographer unknown.
  7. Nice work there Peter. I have been following your posts from the start.
  8. Thanks for your comments. The layout has been finished just under a year, I’ve just never got around to updating the thread. I have attached another shot of how the stile looks now. As for Cromford and High Peak, I have a DJ models J94 ready for additional detailing and renumbered to 68012. I also have a kit to build a Kitson 0-4-0 as 47006. So maybe in the future a CHPR might followI really must add all the other images of the build and bring this right up to date. Also show some of the locos and rolling stock either purchased RTR or kit built for the layout.
  9. No idea on that one. The tunnel mouth is just visible at the Victoria station end, from the car park, behind the bus station. The Sherwood rise end (north end from Carrington is bricked up but still visible behind the houses built in the cutting. I am sure at one time it wasn't allowed to be sealed fully due to roosting bats. As for the manhole, not heard of that one before. The former GC route through Nottingham is slowly disappearing, bit by bit.
  10. Have a look here https://www.kentrail.org.uk/d1_class_2.htm not sure but it looks to be facing the wrong way
  11. All filled in and built on many years ago. The house in the background on the left in the first image is still there for reference
  12. Hearts of Olden Glory - Runrig
  13. Games without Frontiers- Peter Gabriel ps Night Games was Graham Bonnet after he left Rainbow.
  14. Mr Blue Sky - ELO must be for the umpteenth time!!!!!
  15. Under Pressure - Queen & David Bowie
  16. Brothers in Arms - Dire Straits
  17. No, they were removed sometime between 2008 and 2011 when the site was being cleared prior to redevelopment. This is roughly the same spot now. where the cyclist is is roughly the spot where the sentinel is crossing the road. The other track is about where the Lows lane is written. You can still see sleeper marks in the grass on the left.
  18. Well that looks amazing . Well done. Is the other one finished yet or still in the paint shop?
  19. Those Ashover Coaches in the background look rather good also
  20. I have the above book. Do you have a particular loco number in mind and I can check for you if that helps
  21. Well then Captain, did the LA Awsome work? Any chance of pictures? Do you recommend it before I purchase a bottle as I have a jubilee loco body and tender that requires similar treatment.
  22. Was it Brendon or Brandon or something along those names? I think we dropped him off in Derby on the way back.
