Hi

Not seen it mentioned here, but an excellent source of prototype photos:-

Southern Infrastructure 1922-1934 (ISBN 978-1-909328-11-2) photographs from the Edward Wallis collection (Noodle Books)

Now followed up by a second book and a 3rd book promised (which is advertised as GWR) .

regards

Richard

The GWR book is out, and is truly excellent. Should be on every GWR modeller's bookshelf.

Hi,

Not unconnected to the thread on catch points, there's a fascinating photo on page 43 of the second book (ISBN 978 1 909328 24 2) showing the approach to Bodmin (LSWR) with a catch point arrangement that completely confuses me, but apparently permits conventional passenger movements, whilst forming a trap for goods working ?????
