P.S. my dad was in the bandstand playing a paper & comb…not sure if that is what it was built for but if you’re feeling generous
Thanks @MartG1960
4 points for @BadManners
@GMP I am afraid that without supporting evidence, provided by yourself, we can only award two points. Namely for A Hillfort, and a Wiki entry. The Iron Age was between 1200 B.C. and 600 B.C, the bonus point is for Before 800BC so we needed YOU to narrow it down for us.
3 points awarded for your crane @john768, well done
Nicely done Nigel @Stomper , 4 points
3 points @TallTakes
Would have been 4 but we can’t actually see anyone in the bandstand, playing music
Sorry @TallTakes but we can’t clearly see the wheels from your photo. Even with MartG’s support it’s a no. Because the first requirement is not met, you are free to make another submission.
Sorry guys but this is getting a little pedantic now, evidence has been shown that it does have 6 wheels. As far as I was concerned you were referencing the type of train.
If you are going down this route I hope all previous points that others have been awarded for the same entry are going to be removed as nothing is shown/proven stating that the track is at least 7 1/4 inch gauge either but we are assuming it is.
You could go one further and say the tender isn’t separate as it attached on all the entries I’ve seen.
Looks like my 75 mile round trip was really not worth it.
Sorry but I’ve seen my ar@£ on this one.
I think the problem is that on your photo the wheels can ot be seen. As a picture on its own it doesn’t meet the requirements.
Do you not. have any pictures from a different angle that do show the driving wheels?
