would anybody happen to have a list of the codes? im looking for something suitable for D1011 to be pottering about Devon backwaters
Hi Cynric - I do have a small Ian Allen reprint somewhere, but haven't seen it for years, so that's no good.
I had a similar need for Rifleman though, so I just trawled through some suitable books until I saw a Western heading for, or actually in, the west country.
I fitted a passenger headcode at one end (1B39) and copied this from a photo of a Western passing Little Bedwyn. The other end was copied from a freight working, heading west along the sea wall at Dawlish (6V53). I deliberately miswound the first character to show 6 or 7 - that way, it won't look out of placeworking fitted or unfitted wagons.
Regards
Dan
