Yes Dave thats the one. It shows the spinning window. I wonder how many million travelled on these Trains over the years? To have four sets of trains shows how many people used the Pier. Thanks John.

Not quite off topic, but back in the early '60's when I was interested in bikes I recall seeing adverts in the motor cycle press about a rotating visor intended to allow clear vision in rain.

I had one of these in the mid sixties.  Extremely effective.  The spinning disk visor hinged upwards when not raining
