Ella and Shelagh of Eskdale?

Thats the first bit right, but what parts were incorparated?

Yes I know this is a *bit* evil...!

williamfj · Post by **williamfj** » Sat Jul 07, 2012 9:58 am

I think it was the frames & wheels.

laalratty · Post by **laalratty** » Sat Jul 07, 2012 8:25 pm

I'm afraid not, but in the right sort of area with the wheels...

Cranks?

laalratty · Post by **laalratty** » Sat Jul 07, 2012 8:32 pm

Correct Spooner, one part down, one part to go!
If you look closely at Shelagh of Eskdale's cranks you can see the join between Ella's crank and the extension piece

the crank webs and sliding centre-axle came from Ella

laalratty · Post by **laalratty** » Sun Jul 08, 2012 8:00 pm

Fully correct answer! Over to you, by crank webs I think that effectivly means cranks

With or without the one that Howey torched with a can of petrol one night?

Assuming you mean geographical rather than chronological they are currently
Hythe
Dymchurch
St Mary's Bay
Romney Warren
New Romney
Romney Sands
Dungeness
although there have been some changes over the years and name changes as well such as Jefferson Lane Madisons Camp etc.

That will do for me. Well done your turn to post a question.

I never did understand why the railway is named so geographically incorrect.

OK, Just to complete one that one was unfinished from before (we had two questions running simultaneously) .....

a) a range of hills

b) a glass of stout

c) 2 N/G locos.
Whereabouts and what guage?

Sir Clothem Cap · Post by **Sir Clothem Cap** » Mon Jul 09, 2012 4:22 pm

1 foot 10 inch gauge.

Guinness Brewery in St James’s Gate, Dublin

A Wicklow hills

B Guinness

C 13 and 23

Oo..er! Didn't know about that one. Strangely enough your answer, though warm was not the one.

Sir Clothem Cap · Post by **Sir Clothem Cap** » Fri Jul 13, 2012 4:22 pm

Warm Guinness YUK

Any chance of an extra clue?

invicta280 · Post by **invicta280** » Fri Jul 13, 2012 7:20 pm

The guage is more common than that of your Dublin Guiness railway-( 1'10'' ,what an odd choice of guage!)
However it does have something in common with the Dublin line and it had a rail interchange with a rather more famous line.

Sir Clothem Cap · Post by **Sir Clothem Cap** » Sun Jul 15, 2012 10:00 am

Got it I hope

2'6" gauge

A Mendips

B oakhill brewery interchanges with somerset and dorset at binegar

C No idea about the locos

invicta280 · Post by **invicta280** » Sun Jul 15, 2012 11:21 pm

Well done that man!

The locos were apparantly a pair of olive green 0-4-0t's named Oakhill and Mendip.

The brewery made Invalid stout (?)
