Excellent work Simon, looks just the part. Iirc the lever frame and associated equipment are located on the rear wall of these type of boxes. Would there be space for a window?
Thank you very much Chris, and you're quite right, the frame is set "back to traffic".
Of course, if they fitted a smaller frame into a bigger box them they could leave space for a window alongside, but there would need to have been a compelling reason for them to have done that, hmmm.
I would like a level crossing, but don't think I can work one in next to the box.
Ironically, I made my model bigger than Moorewood as the setting on the old line was a "moderately complicated" junction, as opposed to my current "very simple" junction.
All of which goes to prove that you can think about this stuff too much, or possibly not.
To which end I currently fall asleep imaging spurious connections from the Central Cornwall Railway to the Redruth and Chacewater, my conceit being that the Central Cornwall got built early enough (1840s) to retain the packet traffic at Falmouth, and was broadly and thereafter in the "Southern Camp".
On which basis my garden thing is set on the line north of the terminus at Greenbank, most likely in and around Devoran. It is not quite inconceivably daft that it represents a north facing junction connecting the Central Cornwall main line to the erstwhile "Broad Gauge Camp" in the region around Redruth via a linking line which was built along the route of the Redruth and Chacewater.
The reason for this link is that some bloke called Brunel thereafter built a line westwards to Penzance from a hick place called Plymouth, but it never really "caught on", whereas Falmouth became quite the place.
My quay line is therefore at Devoran. All of which is moderately plausible, although the topography around Devoran isn't much like my garden!!
However, it means that I can still run the "Atlantic Packet Express". I dream of a Spam Can on three coaches heading out of the shed, picking up extra portions at Truro, Bodmin and Okehampton before racing East to Waterloo, all hail the mighty APE!
Which raises the question of what do I name the box and call the whole ghastly confection? "Devoran Junction" or possibly "Redruth Junction" for the box and the small station being "Devoran", or "Devoran Quay"? Or something completely different?
In the meantime I'm still pondering the rear window situation......
Phew!
Simon
