Railway Weighbridges

[Martin Collins]

I'm building a weighbridge hut based on, but not slavishly copying the Ffestiniog structure at Minffordd, but have been unable to find any photos of the interior.  I've been in the hut myself many times when on working parties, but the machinery had already been removed to Minffordd Yard.  Even the F.R. Heritage Group secretary doesn't know of any pictures of the inside from when it was in use.  I'm not even sure whether the wagons were weighed on the move, or had to stop.  If the latter, it would have taken a long time to clear an 80 - 100 wagon gravity train!

I've taken a flyer and put an interior together, but would be nice to know if I've guessed right!
