Re: Trainbusting

First post here after finding this wonderful forum.

Thought I´d add my 2c worth to the discussion. I´m leaning towards this aircraft being a Beau from Dallachy, possibly something like 489 (NZ) Sqn, or one of the other Beau squadrons based there and who were heavily involved in operations over the Norwegian coastline.

Also Tormod, there is a Norwegian book on the coastal attacks by the RAF which has a painting of an attacking Beaufighter on the cover´which could possibly help you. I can´t remember the name of the book but it was in the Bodø public library (when I lived in Norway) which was very good. I´ll see if I can dig up the name.
