    Jon :worship: has done a fantastic Job with the signal. That is going to look great on the railway, the new owner of the Seven Tunnel modules is going to be in for a treat when he sees these on there.:thumbs:

    Congrats on pic of the week.

    I'm just green with the signal - I had enough grief with the brake gear on a wagon, and that was cosmetic - Jon's signal works, well impressed.

    impressive Steve - I don't know if I would have the patience to paint the individual bricks.

    Yep, very impresive indeed. I like the detail you have gone to on the bricks at the door/entrance with the serrations in the tops. Well done. :thumbs:

    Cheers, Gary.

    ps, those signals are beautiful pieces of model engineering.

    Ive added the extra centre hand rail bracket. D845 has had a blast of white added and this will be masked off before the green is added.

    Now the frightening bit :eek:, I'm watching with fingers well crossed, lucky white heather between the teeth and a rabbits foot on the keyring - not saying spraying makes me nervous. :giggle:

    Severn tunnel east signal box is now just about complete, I've added gutter pots and down pipes although I might change these to thinner ones!

    Glazing added plus a chimney pipe. I would assume that was for a wood burning stove.
