I have most of the signals now in position on the layout

I was after paying a recent visit to the transport museum and found a GNR ground signal, much to my delight.

After a bit of searching I couldn't seem to find any indication of what GNR ground signals look like.

Are they much the same as the ground signals in the rest of the country?

Thanks

I think I might as well include the ground signals David, it'd make the layout a little bit more interesting.

Here's where I'm at so far

Thank you David. I couldn't have asked for a better explanation. This has been very helpful.

I'll keep you posted with the progress.

Thanks again

 So, double track main line coming in from the left. Single track line entering from the right. Will platforms one and two be just up and down separate, or will you want them both signalled for each direction?

 Potential for a multiple doll gantry across the three tracks where you have written "long sidings", with arms controlling entry to the quay and platforms 1-3 in one direction, plus starters from the quay and all the platforms in the other. That's before adding shunt signals to the long sidings. Could be positively bristling, but a serious job to build, let alone make work.

 Something simpler with several, separate posts probably better.

 Another question - will they be hand operated, remotely controlled or just decorative? Either way looks an interesting project.

 

Something with separate posts would definitely be more suited to me, i don't have access to any laser cutters or 3D printers so these will be handmade as I'm on a budget

They will probably be hand operated, in the future i might try to get them remotely controlled, but Ill have to see what I can do.

Thanks for the help, but could you send us a drawing or something like that to get a better understanding of it please

Thanks again

Here's the layout of the station. Ill be delighted with any help I can get.

Thanks

I am looking for help with how to signal my layout with semaphores

Would anybody have any scale plans of any station buildings, signal cabins, goods sheds etc.. That they would be willing to share?

I am looking for preferably GNR plans, or either any MGWR building plans.

I've taken an interest in the old MGWR station in Athlone and would be absolutely delighted if anyone could share some pictures or track plans

Thanks
