    Ok yet another change (the other 5/8ths calls it mood swings ...? ...) before I ad 3 totally different colour browns and it niggled the hell out of me ... so ... everything will now be a mucky dark brown with varying degrees of weathering to reflect the ages. I have also altered the signal box to add interest ... whilst it might not be prototypical its certainly tintotypical .. more as it develops ...

    Looks like Ian has trains running Too
    I have to find some time to get rolling with my plank:avatar:

    Can I put a spanner in the works (just trying to slow you down BTW:giggle:) I think I liked the signal box where it was placed before the station.
    The station staff will have to breath in when a train is in platform 1.:lol:
    Now if you spend some time rebuilding it back to fit along from the station platform I may be able to catch up:avatar::avatar::avatar:

    Great work Ian loving how it's comming along :thumbs::thumbs:

    Iv'e decided to edge my bets with the signal box ... here ... there ... no here ... no ... so I knocked up another one (almost) that can go anywhere with room to spare ... thing is some persons are so far behind that I'm having to free wheel ...
