They are Meridian choppers on the bogie waggon, the flat waggon just has a bar made from steel wire, as it's only used to move stuff around the works.

Took me a while to get this one. It was shot with my DSLR at F18 with a 2 second exposure. I want to complete more of the scenery and structures before I do anymore photography.

No it's a scratchbuild based on the Chattenden & Upnor wagons on the Welshpool & Llanfair.

A mythical part of East Anglia. Buss Creek runs around the northern perimeter of the sunny seaside town of Southwold.
