Odams wagon

As Exton Quay is based around the old fertilizer plant at Topsham, I thought it might be an idea to have a wagon relating to the plant.
Not knowing that one ever existed or have never found a photo of one, i set about looking for ideas.
First i found this.....
 ....and then i found this. What stunning artwork. i would actually like to own this!
Turning my attention on how am i going to do this, enter my stepson, a genius with computer, who then set about doing the artwork. This was then printed onto some transfer paper and below, is the finished result.

    Hello, I'm researching Odams' Fertilizer and chemical company. Enjoyed your post with lovely veg advert and visualisation of the carriage. Thanks

      Hi Alistair.
      Glad you enjoyed my article. There wasn't much out there at the time. Topsham museum may may be of use to you. Best of luck in your endeavours.
