It must have lost the van body in the intervening years.

Having cleared the decks of several thousand negatives (well nearly - some 100+ Irish due this week) I think its time to crack on with Ballyshannon S&DJR aka Alum Bay and to this end the board has been moved from the loft to my den where I can at least sit down whilst constructing buildings etc. I have more or less worked out buildings etc so hopefully can now crack on with construction.
