About Me

My photo
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.

Wessex Wagons

I like to collect the odd Private owner wagon from time to time, especially if it's from the local area.

Here are two recent addition ideally suited for "Pine Road" Both are from Wessex Wagons.

The first is a Five plank wagon J.H.Rose & Son A coal merchant from Gillingham in Dorset. It's good to see that this company is still alive and kicking. You may want to read more about the company and it's history, some relating to the Railway  Here


The second one is a Grain hopper of Rollerflour mills of Dorchester. I couldn't find anything relating to the wagon but this proved to be interesting
