Ttarrag Shed

Post by garratt100 » Wed Oct 24, 2007 7:05 am

Here's a photo of Ttarag Shed whilst at the National Garden Railway Show in 2007.

It show's John Sowerby servicing a coal fired NGG16 whilst another (Derek Pollards) drifts by in the foreground.
If you look to the rear of the layout, you'll see the end of that train - 13 bogie hoppers & brake van!

Great shot, I'm loving the the saftey valves on that one, so much nicer than the ones that just gently blow off. I set my Mamod one so it did precisley that once, but I tryed to re-set it, and I can't repeat it now.

It's a Garratt you want, not a Garrat... ;)

Anyway, ticking off over...

My friend Ed has built a Garratt from 2 Mamod chassis, i'll see if i can find a photo - if not, i'll take one at Pontefract & post it on here for you to see
