The signal box for
the planned new extension to the Leamington & Warwick Model Railway
Society's layout "Clarendon".
The top section uses a London Road Models
brass kit for a LNWR Type 4 box. The lower section is scratchbuilt using
plastic sheet. A depiction of the interlocking mechanism can be seen
through the windows.
West Country 34104 Bere Alston is constructed from a PDK kit and has a Portescap motor, Gibson wheels, compensation using hornblocks rather than the kit system, plus extra detailing particularly to the tender.
The loco is in 1959 condition and will be used on my "Sidmouth" layout for an excursion train.
