Mickrik,

My knowledge of this area is mainly from passing a few times on the train, OS maps & also Don's brilliant MSTS route.

The Bombardier depot, which seems to be on the Derby side of the former Wichnor sidings (checked the railway spelling from an old Network Rail National Control Centre Log), is known by several names; officially it's "Central Rivers" or "Barton Depot", but it's also locally known as "Barton-under-Argos" or "Muddy Waters". :)

Cheers,
mickw

Lovely! When can we have it? I have stations on the Wombourn branch if you want them (or I can finish them). Can you do a shot of Tettenhall for me? I only have V1 and want to go to Tettenhall :(

Hi there,

I have not done any activity work down at Tettenhall as yet.

The above picture is now a finished activity. I am about to start work on the next one which will probably take up the next 3 weeks but I will be round the corner at Oxley, so I might run Light engine into Tettenhall and do a screenshot with a very, very nice engine.

Hi Pete, how are you, did you say you had CC4?. If you liked CC4, I think CC5 is going to be a treat but I definately don't want to hype it up.


cheers

It's work in progress I believe. Even so, "that only looks a little like Tettenhall" is of very little use to the author. If you politely suggest anything that you think needs tweaking, it's much more likely to happen.

Bigant,

I sent you some screenshots of one of the buildings I was doing. Maybe you could post them on here to let people know what I meant.

Here is a link to lots of photographs of Tettenhall taken recently. I have the original plans (From the Public records office) and can recreate the stations on the whole line if needed...
