Ben - can you read my mind?!!!!

I already have a rough which includes a traction engine, an industrial railway loco (0-4-0 saddle tank) plus wagons and a canal in the middle distance. I will dig it out and I may post it - I will see how it looks before making a decision.

I wrote in another post a few weeks ago about being annoyed when I find out about an event after it has happened - this is exactly what I mean! Aaaarrrrggghhhh... !!!

The whole environment here, in these photos, is so good. The warehouse itself, including the brickwork with blue bricks, the windows and the roof all make for such an effective backdrop. And then there are the stone setts that form the road surface - as seen in my picture of the Duke of York. Add to these elements the canal, barges, sign writing etc. and you just about have enough material for a lifetime of creating artwork!

Michael
