Park

I like the photos above. The square tower is just so recognisable. I got the train from there many a time back to Meols, where I grew up I see you are on about getting coastal views for a back scene. As was said it's not until Meols that the houses give way to fields and sandhills to the coast. Unfortunately now the coastal view is ruined by the many wind farm masts There is the lighthouse at Moreton near the coast or the older one in Hoylake village. Not far from WKT is the grand building of the Girls grammar school, which is across the tracks from the cinder track that runs alongside the railway. More imposing is the pub and church in Meols as if you look from Thurstaton they are very prominent. I will see what photos I have from the 80's with decent views Just had a skim read of this all and see many mentions of 503's. If only someone did them in kits, I would have one to go with my 9f and Summers hoppers, Bidston here we come !
