Title: Norton cross
Post by: Fastfaz on July 25, 2015, 08:58:23 am

Hi all,
      I have just started an MMM Norton Cross and the drawing is somewhat lacking in detail about the superstructure, does anyone out there have any photos of the Norton cross cabin/wheelhouse looking from the bow,stern,shelter area and sides they could post or email to me? Any help would be really appreciated.
      Regards,
         Faz. :-)) :-)) :-)) :-)) :-)) :-)) :-))

Hi Dougal,
     That's right there quite a few on the net but I haven't been able to find any real close ups of the stern view of the superstructure or the Wijsmuller logo on the side, its a bit like to chain loops interlinked with what looks like a picture of the world/globe as part of it. I tried lots of ways of wording the title but you mainly get Svitser as they are the current owners.
      Cheers,

Scroll down on this page and there's a version of what you describe.

And a rather small image of a proper globe and chains here:

Hope this may help.
