Maybe one for a future MR article?!<br />I'll try that footpath next time I'm up that way, hopefully when I have a bit more time to explore.<br />Cheers,<br />George.George Denthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13636120634078363608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212570041608488781.post-85916029447198312612013-06-05T20:27:48.071+01:002013-06-05T20:27:48.071+01:00I cycled there on Monday to photograph the OAAs as...I cycled there on Monday to photograph the OAAs as I've never seen them up here before. Interesting wagons, and I reckon almost impossible to model in 4mm scale due to the fine sides.<br />Its worth taking a walk into the quarry (there's a public footpath), a good central viewpoint can be found at the top of a hill which looks over the quarry workings. You can watch the huge dumptrucks come and go being dwarfed by their surroundings!Paul B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05278773151546187084noreply@blogger.com
