    Here's the other completed signal. These are 1930's vintage when the GW resignaled Paddington, Bristol & Cardiff.
    The route indicator would have various platform options on it. We will do a generic option like Jon did on the gantry.

    Signal update from Jon this evening and the 3 aspect is nearly complete.
    The King is a just like the real thing kit as are both castles. They did cost a fair bit but are worth every penny.

    Another work of Art By JF there Steve.

    The signals will certainly bring the layout to life.

    A really nice job with the signal - I'll be looking carefully at these, just bought the Scratchbuilders guide to Semaphore signals book, so maybe taking a keener interest in colour light ones in the very near future :avatar:
