Atomic Systems

I saw some narrow gauge shots yesterday, and as my narrow gauge route is becoming presentable, here are some shots from the town end

In the street outside a convenient hostelry, where the crews of the loco and the steam wagon seem to have gone


Two shots at the gas works, one showing an empty load of coal wagons coming off the tippler, and the other adjacent to the original coal store, still in use for the old retort house.

In the second pitcure there is a manhole cover like thing, could you please tell me what that is.

It's a wagon turntable, very much like an overgrown manhole cover - unfortunately, I can't make it work!

Oh thank you, I see it make them eaiser to load.

In steam days in the UK most large goods stations in urban areas would have many wagon turntables - the wagons could be shunted by horse (or human) power into every area of the building for loading and unloading.

My goodness me - that is absoloutley beautiful. A stunning route.

Look forward to running it if it is released.

Outastanding .
