I'd vote for a gwr roof like Toddington not knowing the advantages/disadvantages (aside I guess from more expensive traditional?) but Broadway station is going.to look great from the outside when finished, really look the part, and a proper roof would suit it better IMO. Not something you can easily change later either!Alexnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8914276256646518799.post-17364489762249328472014-11-07T22:15:05.944+00:002014-11-07T22:15:05.944+00:00Alex, these have always been ball park figures, yo...Alex, these have always been ball park figures, you mustn't look for too much detail.<br />I guess its about 3000m of track in a straight line, plus points and all the double track for the loops to be added at Broadway.<br />Of this, 800m has been purchased just now.<br />£500k was a ball park figure for the buildings. Some of this has already been spent, on the SB and on a supply of special facing bricks for box and station.<br />There's still a debate about the station roof - GWR like Toddington, or a modern freelance design like CRC... so we don't know an exact cost yet.Jo https://www.blogger.com/profile/05480195769830116100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8914276256646518799.post-64249124842369678342014-11-07T22:04:01.392+00:002014-11-07T22:04:01.392+00:00RE the break down of costs to three main bits - As...RE the break down of costs to three main bits - As you've said, bridges have been sorted (Hooray!). 500K for the track- how much of this has already been ordered, and does that include signalling/do we have all of that already (I know we've got the frame). Also, how much of the 500K for the building has been done? Given that the platforms are basically finished and the signal box is well advanced, is 500K what there is left, or total that has and will be spent?<br /><br />Great stuff, fantatstic to see so much progress towards the extension :DAlexnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8914276256646518799.post-38731361131824305552014-11-07T16:16:21.059+00:002014-11-07T16:16:21.059+00:00Great Stuff.
