In another instalment from the archives of regular contributor Alan Sewell we have a collection of narrrow gauge photographs selected regarding the trackwork…
As I said in my comment attached are some photos which I ethink support the authenticity of your modelling.
The large MR was taken in 1965 on Arnolds operation of the Leighton Buzzard Light railway and pre-any preservation. The colour slides I took at Maenofferen in 1980 with the incline at the transhipment wharf and the track around the slate mill. The other B&W photo is looking down into the pit at Penrhyn in 1964. In none of these is there much signs of sleepers with the track buried in the land.

Thank you Alan, for sharing these with us all and I hope there is some inspiration locked within these images for your own modelling. It certainly has fuelled the fire here for more modelling on the tramway. Until next time, more soon…
