A useful little photo, especially if you need to build a narrow gauge buffer stop, like me.
This one is found on the Talyllyn Railway, and is possibly a little heavier than normal to stop stock exiting off the end of the raised area beside the standard gauge line. TR stock might not be that heavy, but better safe than sorry. Mind you, there's not a lot in the way of angled metalwork bracing things, so those bits of rail must be well buried.
This reminds me, I could do with a point lever too...

Historically there are Good Reasons (TM) for having a nice robust buffer stop at this location.
