7mm Welsh Narrow Gauge Quarry Railways in 7mm scale

[BetweenTheTunnels]

Great to see the pics of the Una/Britomart in their original setting. Not especially revenant, but you quote Cliff Thomas' book...

According to Cliff Thomas in 'Quarry Hunslets of North Wales' the names BRITOMART and UNA derive from Edmund Spencer's 'The Faerie Queene', in which Una was apparently a beautiful virgin representing truth and virtue.

... just a throw away comment, Cliff is a fantastic 009 modeller, and he tells me his home layout is to be featured in Model Rail shortly. Being fictional it may not be to everyone's taste, but the scenery is brilliant and the level of detailing well up to museum standard.

The Corris Railway have a problem with shortage of space at their Corris terminus and like many modellers have solved the problem with this rather neat traverser.

Photographed yesterday with their new Falcon replica 0-4-2ST built by Alan Keef Ltd. and delivered just over 12 months ago.
