The surfaces were prototypically a mixture of slabs, tarmac, gravel and Staffordshire diamond patterned nosings. I'm still scratching my head on that one.

Hi Andrew,  excellent work as always, it was very nice to see the update.  Scratch ye your head no more, it might be worth having a look at the Scale Model Scenery website  (usual disclaimer - as you know I am nothing to do with the company)  they advertise lazer cut blue diamond platform coping as being available.  https://www.scalemodelscenery.co.uk/lx352-oo-vintage--steam-era-blue-diamond-platform-coping-1120mm---oo4mm176-9466-p.asp.  

Hi Andrew,

Gosh, all looking rather splendid you have been busy.  Thank you for posting.

Excellent modelling, of a standard that one can only dream of. I don't know if you are aware but there is quite an extensive 2 foot gauge railway at the Westonzoyland Pumping Station http://www.wzlet.org/index.htm down on the Somerset levels. There is a Lister engine there which they say came from Fisons Peat Works so perhaps the Allegro's didn't get it. Keep up the good work. The railway has not always been there so my guess is that a lot of the track came from there as well.
