Richard's Southern E-mail Group page

The Southern E-mail Group is an informal discussion forum for modellers of the Southern Railway, Region and its pre-grouping constituents. The Group's Home Page explains more.

The main purpose of my personal pages is to make available to other members of the group some photos and drawings of interest.

Bulleid Carriage Side-light Drawings
Drawings taken from measurements of preserved coaches, initially done for Greg Goodman who wanted to produce some etched sliding-vent frames.

Improving the Hornby SR coaches
The old Hornby SR coaches (R441 Composite and R445 Brake 3rd) are enticing, but unfortunately we believe them to be the work of a designer from S*indon. All is not lost, however. The changes described will make them rather more "Southern" in appearance. This page has been somewhat superceeded by the arrival, at the end of 2007, of Hornby's quite superb new Maunsell coaches.
