Check out Chris Nevard's superb blog when you get the chance. He's a superb modeller and gifted photographer and a big fan of the S&D. This blog post includes a brilliant picture of the viaduct at Midford, using Photoshop to superimpose one of the Bachmann 7Fs crossing the viaduct.

Whilst the photo aims to recreate 1959 it also gives us a good idea of how things will look in 2029, if you wait long enough for a heritage steam train in amongst the heavy freight and passenger trains using electric haulage!
