About Me
- cparkstone
- When i left school back then i was lucky enough to enroll on an engineering apprenticeship. I think this lead me in good stead. I was always one of those children that pulled things apart but actually put them back together again. My first engine given to me at the age of Seven, a Triang Princess Elizabeth. The rest as they say is History. Later in life i got back in to Model Railways and started building Pine Road. This could lead anywhere so i hope you enjoy my Blog.

Hornby R6913A SR brake van
So i bought one. A nice photo of it in "An iliustrated history of Southern Wagons" page 63, taken on the North Cirnwall line in 1936. Obviously where Hornby have got there information from. They shouldnt have matched the colour from the photo, far to light. When they were uprated to 24t the spoke wheels were removed and replaced with solid ones, looks like the wheels are wrong aswell. Its a cracking, well detailed model.
she will be repainted.
