Impressive, but I can't help think it'd not look out of place on the Game of Thrones set

Have you been to Bodmin??

 

[Pencarrow]

Surely we're nearing the end of the roofing...

 

[Stubby47]

Nope, you've got to add the ridge tiles and paint and weather it yet.

 

[Pencarrow]

I do like this photo. No, not for the Railbus but because it's in colour and what seem to be natural tones (rather than overblown or washed out). Will be useful for painting.

And this one too, from Flickr Bodmin North (Nov 1966) by Malcolm Bott.



Zooming in to the original, there's quite a bit of detail to look at.

Nice colour variation on the stone work of the station building chap. You'll enjoy doing them.

It’s interesting, that in the first picture, the totems have been mounted on the canopy supports, but at right angles to the platform edge!

Logical though because they're all beyond the end of the loop - passengers would only see them on foot and never from the window of the train.

A good observation, which might also explain why there is no totem on the lamp post in the foreground?

Well spotted that man. You are correct:



There's a building in the background that nobody in their right mind would model...

 

[Dan Randall]

Great picture Chris, though in the first picture, I assumed they were mounted to the columns, rather than the canopy ironwork itself. (I love totems! ).

Nice bungalows !

Nice bungalows !

What about the trees and telegraph poles?

 

[Pencarrow]

Speaking of telegraph poles, there's some guttering and downpipe details in this shot.

 

[Peter Cross]

Shame it was handed over to the western region, a station in a much better location the their own.

The colour photo all show a run down state of affairs.

Rest assured that Pencarrow was never handed over to the WR.

Rule 1.

Oh. Let me know when it's done.
