Fictional History of CBK
Hi all,
As members, i'm going to give you exclusive notice of the new competition i'm running - a chance to help create the history of our railway!
Basically, we need a history to the specifications below, that we can publish on the website and on any publications we may produce.
The specifications are as follows:
Stations be in the order of: Crystal Bay
>>
Togton
>>
Halwich
>>
Foxton
>>
Kingsford
>>
Seinfar Stadium (Kingsford)
>>
Forbes Junction
*Please remember that Foxton and Seinfar Stadium stations were not around in BR times, therefore do not mark them on your plans. You do however need to leave room for them, and mark these locations (possibly in a different colour).
It should be possible to operate the railway in BR (LMR), NSE, Privatisation and the Current Preserved form without altering the history.
It was originally double-tracked, to enable lots of summer seaside specials to Crystal Bay (Which is on the East Coast)
It is connected to the real life Midland Mainline at Forbes Junction.
All Stations on the Line, including Forbes Junction, do not have to tie in with real locations.
Forbes Junction should be conveniently located, but no stations should be ommited (i.e. Forbes Jct. taking the place of a true station)
That's all!
For more information, simply email me!
