Bristol Bath Road Depot

Post by hornbachhh »

Hi I am looking for more info to assist me in my model of Bath Road Depot. I am already in frequent contact with some of the ex 82A men here on the forum and I really appreciate all there help , the problem I am having is that none of them worked there up until the closure of the depot. I am trying to find out what the layout was in the Jacking shed towards the end. I beleive the Materson jacks were towards the south of road 7 but I would like this confirmed if possible, plus having watched the DVD there seems to be a clear screen between roads 7 and 8? My other enquiry is , did the pits in the jacking shed stop short of the south of the shed as after watching the big gathering on the DVD at closure time all the staff were standing to the rear of the Jacking shed and I never saw anybody fall into any pits!!! Just a few matters I would really appreciate if anybody could solve as this would mean a lot . Many thanks Andy.
