Quite possibly emulate what was at somewhere like Hemyock in the early 1970s?Right, I think I seeim going on the assumption that the yard is pretty much closed, but the creamery is still open and that traffic from that would be pulled back into the station.
Pretty close Dave
Just measured it at 273 x 44 cmTa, I'll stick up an update soon...
Concerning my previous flippant comment about 4mm modellers, I'd like to stand by said comment, but add 'talented' and 'skilled' into the equation too 
2 spans by 12 spans. Oh, not that oldWhat's that in Old Money, then..?
(A span is 9", there are 4 to a yard apparently - I just googled it)
) was well worth it Steve 
Cheers Phill, it was rather 'sweary'That ground frame (swearing and all
Top of handles and levers are about 0.3mm in diameter...Cheers Capt'n, kind photography though
Its an MSE Four Lever Ground Frame (cosmetic), part number LS009. The kit blurb states that it is 'based upon Sykes and Saxby & Farmer pattern knee frames' - I suspect that will mean more to you than me
The only mods to the kit were removal of some of the brass for the front and rear of the curved plate so it would sit flush within the sides. The corners have been filleted with solder and smoothed off.I think there are a few options Tim, the ground could be the level of your brown lines as the instructions say 'May be used on its own, in conjunction with a ground frame cabin or recessed into a timber platform at a station or in the open'. Given its fragile nature and proximity to the joins between boards, I think a small timber platform around it so that the whole thing will be removable is the best best. The rodding can stay in situ, the join between that and ground frame hidden under the timber platform. If you have the New Radnor Branch book, I'm going to copy the image on p34.
Compensators etc. included?
Yup
). Time will be in short supply this week, but we'll see how it all goes.
Yup
Well, thats the current plan - I'm re-reading the MRJ articles and writing down the various rules that need to be applied, plus I've scouted through Tim's RMWeb blog which revealed some extra useful information (distance between stools, distance from rail etc etc
But the chapters on rodding are worth reading. I'll try and dig up more details to make this information of some use. 
Would that be the Bodmin layout ??.....brilliant series, very inspirational.The first time I ever saw a good treatment of point rodding was in the series on constructing a P4 layout in the Constructor many years ago. I remember the series running for years but can't remember the name of the layout.
Jim.
Out of interest, one of our members in the DRAG group is the custodian of 'Bodmin', which still makes occasional exhibition appearances.
.....and you certainly wouldn't sit on one 
John,Project Cac.......'distance between stools'......what makes me think that all this is heading down the incontinence path? Sorry , this is what comes from being married to a retired district nurse where stools are a totally different thing
Cheers for that. Sorry - some of us still measure in Imperial - unless the fractions get too hard...
I'm just japing with ya, I still convert metric back to imperial when it comes to sizing things such as wood or rooms - even though I've only ever been taught metric.
