As some of you know, back in the '80's I used to spend a lot of time
photographing railway wagons in the UK. I have decided to do something
useful with all my photos, and have extablished a new web site to display
them.

The URL is http://www.brickset.com/wagons

(It has nothing to do with brickset -- it's just a convenient place to host
the ASP application at no extra cost)

At present there are about 350 images available, and I have another 5000 or
so still to scan.

To be honest, the interface has not yet been geared up for the non-expert
visitor, but I will be attending to that in due course.

Can't get less expert than me, and I am finding scouting around a breeze.
Of course I am the type that clicks on almost everything in sight eventually
just out of curiousity...

It did't take but a moment or so to find a wonderful one to model for a
Fabuland style train - yellow and green with a rounded top.   Beautiful!
1984, it is even from the same era as Fabuland.

Thank you for yet another excellent resource!

Nevertheless, LEGO
train modellers may still find something of interest and inspiration there.

I look forward to your comments.
