Well done the builders this is going to be a great stop, far from the maddening crowd in the summer, now if I could park my caravan behind the Halt for the summer what bliss would entail?!Paul & Marion Sucksmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15384367780051937185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835854219772837675.post-58756409287296918172016-10-25T10:49:52.184+01:002016-10-25T10:49:52.184+01:00I would love a halt at Willersey.

It would make a great railcar shuttle destination from Broadway.<br /><br />How to actually build the halt is another kettle of fish. It was made completely of sleepers, being on top of an embankment, instead of in a cutting as Hayles Abbey Halt. Lovely Pagoda on top though.Jo https://www.blogger.com/profile/05480195769830116100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835854219772837675.post-79358501883471738902016-10-25T10:24:07.551+01:002016-10-25T10:24:07.551+01:00No, it didn't have those - see the colour pict...No, it didn't have those - see the colour picture posted earlier.<br />We will try to reproduce as exactly as possible what there was.Jo https://www.blogger.com/profile/05480195769830116100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835854219772837675.post-5252046712242008772016-10-24T23:03:33.164+01:002016-10-24T23:03:33.164+01:00Will you be planting some Corsican pines on the ba...Will you be planting some Corsican pines on the banks around the halt ? :)mackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17907522192585853360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835854219772837675.post-76953580529598267322016-10-24T21:01:49.171+01:002016-10-24T21:01:49.171+01:00Looking very good.

The woodwork looks very believable, and I can imagine the halt with the corrugated waiting shelter on it and maybe a 48XX, (pre war 14XX), or even a 64XX and an auto trailer or possibly a GWR railcar pulling up?? I have a good imagination. <br />What price the first ticket from Broadway to Hayles Abbey halt?? It would surely be a collectors item for the future!<br />Roll on that day eh?
