West Green garden railway

I am building a garden railway here in Sydney. I am building an impression of West Green station which was in Tottenham on the old Seven sisters to Palace gates branch.

Here is a video I shot today. It was very hot here, about 38C. Were expecting 41C tommorow.

Good to see the N7 running mate, how is the quint coming along?

JB.
Im not working on the quads at present, I really felt I needed to get something running.
I built two platforms but and a mock up of the Belmont Road overbridge.
I may have clearance issues as the bridge is a twin arch bridge, I may need to compromise and make it a single arch
Here is a video of it

Here is a photo of the real thing
I seem unable to find any photos of the goods yard except for 8ne in 1911 and a few images of where it used to be.
I know what the configuration was as Adrian Marks sent me a article by a signalman who worked at West Green box in the 1930s.

The quads are a must and Iwould like another N7.
Jim Mcgeown doesnt make them anymore and the only bloke who has one is the bloke at Sudbury in the funny shop .
