It's probably still incomplete, as the original post was made with Google.

RAF 617 (Dambusters) Squadron went on to do pinpoint drops from high altitude of Tall Boy and Grand Slam ground-penetrating earthquake bombs, which were more effective at collapsing bridge piers.

Sure, but that wasn't the norm for allied bombing and 'pinpoint' wasn't and still isn't. As a model railway parallel, operating precise prototype scale wheel and track standards in N scale is done, but not by Dapol or Graham Farish.

instead - nice and simple.

The only two narrow gauge railways in Seaford I can find reference to are a 3' 6" steam / freight only line which was less than 1/4 mile long owned by a George Young which operated for a couple of years at the end of the 1890's plus a 24" line at Seaford Head used in WWII by the Canadian Army or Air Force as a target practice line. Ran from South Hill Barn about 1 mile in length. Some "cuttings" remain. Try "Barrack to Bunkers" by Peter Longstaff-Tyrrell Sutton Publishing 2002
