Other Notes

In 1981, the L&BRA reported that Stan Bawden of Harlow had brought his 009 model of Bratton Fleming station to an exhibition.

The Lyn and Exmoor Museum in Lynton contains a collection of old 7mm scale L&B models (by R N Bishop, I think).

It is unclear if G F Tull and G A Tull are the same person. Both are listed exactly as described in the cited references.

Ilfracombe Model Railway Society say they are building a 4mm scale model of Barnstaple Town from the standard gauge side, with an 009 spur off at the back.

The NRM York used to have on display a 7 ¼ inch gauge Manning Wardle.
