| Recognising Tonbridge detail |
The close up detail on this week's Recognising Tonbridge was part of the wheel on the railway carriage at the miniature track in the park. Both Steve Abrahams and Peter@greenhares spotted this correctly.

The green carriage is a former 1939 British Rail delivery van and is used by members of the TMEC as a refreshment and meeting area.
The miniature railway track was built in 1951 by The Tonbridge Model Engineering Club, who run the steam trains at weekends that attract queues of eager childen waiting for a ride from these puffing engines during the summer months. Since 1951 the track has been extensively extended and is about a third of a mile long all complete with signalling.
