This is a shot of an old turntable in Galway Bay station in Eire in 1999. The station and facilities were so quaint, my wife and I had the feeling that we had been shrunk to 16mm scale and plunked down midst a giant outdoor garden railway.
"Cloister" is one of my favourite locomotives. A Quarry Hunslet, by Hunslet of Leeds, built in 1891. Seen here running a the Kew Bridge Steam Museum during a 16mm event in 1999.

2 views of Triassic taken on the Leighton Buzzard Light Railway by John Turner of JD Models. Thanks to Brian L Dominic checking on the correct name for this locomotive. Brian reports that he was the driver the day this picture was taken.
I happen to like the Southern Railway/ BR Southern Region because my daughter, son-in-law and three grandchildren live along the London Waterloo-Reading line and before that, the London Waterloo-Guildford line. So a picture or two from a recent trip, including one from the Association of 16mm NG Modellers' AGM:
