Rothley and Whetstone Station
Posted: Wed Nov 07, 2018 4:49 pm
Good afternoon,
I was looking for some info and came across a guy called Chris who is building Whetstone yard, I suspect he has finished now.
The question was for detail drawings of Whestone Cabins stilts. How ever do not forget that the lamping hut was also on stilts until it was planted in my garden. Also I trust that the layout was built with the other signal box in the back of the yard which was used by the plate layers, also for accuracy the water tower should be included if the layout is prior to it burning down. !
The lamping hut at Rothley is not in original condition and the Whestone cabin roof should be used to detail.
Finally the connection between the GC and midland line is known locally as blue banks and it is quite possible that the plate layers box was from this junction.
