His tour de force was undoubtedly Minories. He drew that plan based in a cutting but he told me one night in the library of The Model Railway club that although that was the easiest way to do it scenically, he thought the way it would look best was on a viaduct. He envisioned that the ground level, starting at the station building end, fell away towards the fiddle yard end culminating in a street running at 90 deg to the track that was on the embankment of a large river with the railway crossing over both the street and the river on a bridge. The track would then vanish between two large warehouses into the fiddle yard, the front one of which could be the railway goods warehouse which would hide the said FY. Genius, pure genius!!! You can do a great deal worse than taking inspiration from dear old Cyril.
