I took these pictures on the weekend at the Lynton and Barnstaple of 16mm L&B locos lined up on the original track. There are a few more to come over the next few days Smile

Great idea that.

I wonder how many coupled together would it take to move a 2' gauge wagon?

Thankyou, some of the best photos I have taken! Are any suitable for publishing do you think? The other people there wanted one to send into Garden Rail magazine and was wondering if you thought any were suitable?

AMy could be published, but the shot and compostion would need to be tighter on the subjects in my view for a magazine of cove image.

I'd send the last one to Tag, if he wants to crop it then he will, it's a good view of the locos, and you've got the station nameboard in the background, the others are good, but could be at any old railway.

This time next year you may well see the real thing storming to Blaenau.
