I don't recognise it.

But my wild* guess would be Broadway on the Gloucestershire and Warwickshire.

*Well, I may have spotted a clue in the image.

Wow, took me a minute to find it even after I knew what I was looking for. Well spotted!

Abergynolwyn?
No. (Would there even be room to run round 7 coaches on the Talyllyn? Maybe if they were all 4 wheelers?)
I was just going on the rockwall it's mounted on. I have no idea how many coaches the Talyllyn can run.

Ireland's still bitter. We want Irish Pete back!
Works in G scale, curious about SM32. Profiles on IRM and RMWeb as well, under same username, check them out.
Also, anyone interested in Irish (specifically 3ft) lines, I'm no expert but I can try help.

On the day the forum was finally suspended (by GoDaddy), I was out and about. I took a few photos with the intention of posting them to this thread.

So..... A couple of weeks old, but any ideas where I was ....?

This seems like an impossible one, I know I'd never guess it in a million years if it hadn't be me there. But you're all so good, it's worth a go. So... Where was I...?
