Engineer’s yard

I have now finished the last area on the layout which was previously bare. This is the engineer’s yard at the left hand end of the scene.

The signal box is now out of use and is used by the Signal and Telegraph team with offices on the upper floor and storage beneath where the locking frame would have been . To the right is the Wickam trolley used by the plate laying gang and behind the signal box are various storage sheds.

The church is a much altered Bilteezi card kit. The windows have been replaced and now contain stained glass from a sheet I obtained many years ago from Langley models.

Old signal box now used by S&T department with evidence of old equipment lying around.
