Atomic Systems

Hi there,

In respect of the latest addition to the truly excllent Briscard route I plan quite a few new activites but really need clarification of suitable trains and or stock tht would have run in the Camarthan area in the late BR period (circa 1988 - 1994). For example I think Intercity used to run HST's down to Haverfordwest but I can find no photographic evidence that backs this up so if anybody has any info, knows any good books or internet sights that could point me in the right direction i would appreciate it very much.

Also I'm quite interested in any info on freight movements in the area so if any info can be gained on this also that would also be fantastic.

Kind regards in anticipation,

Yes

And before that, the odd class 50

Excellent, so thats HST's confirmed then. Many thanks.

The hst's still run today.

Your looking at HSTs from Swansea - Bristol area
47s on Parcels From Swansea - Bristol Area

Freightwise you could use
37/7 or /9 on Llandarcy - Llanwern tanks (http://bobfostersrailgallery.fotopic.net/p48187036.html)
also various 37s/56s/60s on steel slab trains from Margam - llanwern and other destinations
and lime and coal trains from various sites to Tostre, Port Talbot and Llanwern steelworks
Also Steel Coils from Port Talbot to Tostre Works (according to http://www.llanelli-history.i12.com/corus-2%20Works.htm)

Hello there,
This is exactly what I was looking for, and those pics are awesome. If anybody has anymore please feel free, I'd like to make acts that are as realistic as they can be!

Many thanks,
