Tinsley Depot

I am in the first stages of building a Model of Tinsley Depot, based around the depot in its last 10 years from 1988 to 1998. I am in need of Photos in and around the depot to help piece together the surrounding buildings and track layout that i am missing. Any photos of the depot would be of great use and many thanks in advance!

If you wish to watch the progress of the Layout i will be posting regular Photos to my website, Here is the first set of photos ive taken: http://freightmastermatt.fotopic.net/c1767515.html

Bring 47375 back to the Mainline in Railfreight Distribution Livery!

One or two pics there, I have a few more, I'll send them via email soon.

Matt,

If you have time to trawl through my website,
http://www.margam-depot.co.uk/locopicturegallery.htm
you should find pictures of locos in just about every position around the shed, which should give you what you are looking for.

The easiest way would be to look up the pictures of all locos that were allocated to the depot between those times. Tinsley was virtually on my doorstep from 1973 to 1989.

Cheers for those Dave, the photo with the double slip in the foreground was very helpful! ...and Martin, i will have a browse through your photos. May also help me to decide on which locos go on the layout as i cant seam to find a list of allocated locos to the depot.

I will be uploading more photos of the progress soon, 56049 being the first DCC loco i have bought for the layout! Soon to be joined by some DCC Sound locos i hope!

Cheers!

ooh thats defiantly going to feature along with 47375! I reckon a few class 37s with DCC Sound wouldn't go a miss either

Ive just added some new Photos to my website showing the first DCC loco i have bought (56049) and shows the Bachmann Dynamis System which will be controlling the layout when completed.

I have also took delivery of of 25 yard lengths of OO track and a number of points which will make up the depot.

Take a Browse! http://freightmastermatt.fotopic.net/c1776436.html
