Cool work Huw!

Thanks Ben for your comments, and to everyone else. It will encourage me to
start on the next model ASAP. Probably a matching signalbox (but I'll have
to stock up on bulk grey parts first!)

How big are UK Signalboxes??? In the US they're waist high little electrical
enclosures, no bigger than a refrigerator in most cases, often small enough
to mount on a telephone pole. 3 or 4 bricks in grey should do you!

Signal Towers or Interlocking Towers, or even Yard Control Towers,(in
increasing size order) those are much bigger, usually 2 stories high with an
office sized or larger work area and lots of windows on the second story.
John Neal posted a nice one although it's a bit big for how few windows it has.
