    I'm trying to locate a set of drawings for a GWR water tower as seen at Bodmin, South Devon and GWSR.
    Has anyone made a new one from scratch or are they all restored?
    Can you recommend any where to look?
    I'm happy to pay for the plans or make a donation.
    I will also be looking into making several to keep the cost down, anyone interested please let me know.

    Kind regards

    Paul.

    Have a look at this site for starters as the platform/floor cranes drawings are in the mag, and could be the ones you are looking for as well.http://www.gwrjournal.com/ The drawings are the GWR drawings not ones that someone else has drawn. Looks like No 3 could be your best bet for starters. http://www.gwrjournal.com/issue.php?s=3
