Nice period shot :thumbs: I can see the attraction of modelling the station as it has a well defined limit and a nice backdrop of houses

Phill, thanks for posting the pics :thumbs: . If you have anymore they would be great. The general shot has helped because it shows a little clearer the track layout and the position of the signal. Thanks mate :thumbs:

This is the latest up-date on the signal box. As you can see the roof needs a second coat, then weathering and stove pipe cutting to length ,a little more detailing on the roof. The interior is nearly finished, my mate is picking me some more levers from Kettering on sat, so should be able to finish the interior next week. So nearly there :thumbs:
sorry about the pic , took it asap this morning.

The brickwork looks great to me as it is... ;)

This does show that it's worth doing all that interior detail in a Signal Box.. it's all so visible!!

I have spent quite a bit of time on painting the signal equipment and levers over the last few days. So although not much has changed on the outside of the box,the interior has come on a bit. Here are a couple of pics of the progress so far :thumbs:

Thats coming on nicely :thumbs: The only thing I would suggest is to weather the floor in the most used areas and make it a little lighter, as they do tend to fade a bit with wear.
