Hi Colin. Great update buddy. Really great bit of modelling. Love the platform those kits look superb. If you find an old signal box at a toy fair or exhibition just use the ladder, doesn't matter if it's plastic just paint it up. Thanks Colin. Thumbs up thumped 👍 .... Pete....

Coming along nicely, Colin and a great tip, with the strapping. Those kits do look good. I've just finished building a Petite Properties church, which in fairness has turned out alright. I might put a picture on the community page...cheers James 🙂👍

as the signal box is a laser cut kit, contact the seller/manufacturer and ask for another set, buy something else from them and i am reasonably sure the steps will be either free or very reasonably priced, Nice update

Thank you for your suggestion about the steps , l have already started making a set of steps thats a bit different look out for them and let me no what you think and thank you for taking the time to help other modelers . All the best Colin.

@@Mossendrailway00 I think a bit of kit bashing is worthwhile, it allows modellers to make kits more personal and not uniform across the hobby.

Just a suggestion. Point rodding leads out from the front of the signalbox, usually central. Seeing the first point is so close to the platform, perhaps recess the signal box into the rear of the ramp to bring rodding into line.

Thanks for the suggestion about the point rodding l have finished doing it but its not to good , l found it very difficult but its not right but l think l will get away with it. And thank you for helping others all the best Colin.

@Mossendrailway00 Unless you are an engineer I think reasonable representation is perfect. Being honest I've never tried myself, though I did get a couple of kits years ago, but life moved on, lol 🤣
