taken 18 years ago, near to Staines-Upon-Thames, Surrey, England

Staines Turntable
Staines Turntable
"Big" railways do not need turntables any more but the complicated train movements operated by the Staines Society of Model Engineers on this track in Staines Park demand a twelve-road turntable. The tower of the Spelthorne Borough Council Offices in TQ0471 : Staines: Knowle Green can be seen in the background.
