OK added a side rail
![]()
but due to the large solenoids in front, I m not happy with the location .
a bit further to the right but have to angle it

still not enthused so I have this version ( yes USA outline) but as there are so many variations of signal boxes/cabins in the UK. it may fit in..

Just a thought Sol, but if you could set the point solonoids back from the track a little, one you could hide under the signal box and the other under a longish lamp hut maybe.
As I said, just a thought though not as dangerous as most of my ideas !

Allan, shifting solenoids would be a major job as the turnout itself would have to be lifted to extend the operating rods which are in the hole in the tiebars. The solenoids are not a clip fit to the tiebar.
Told you some of my ideas were dangerous Sol !

The cabin has been modernised - no lever frame as such, just an angled table with track plan and touch switches as all turnouts & signals are electric. You may have noticed, no chimney either. The D&S replaced the old West cabin a few years ago. The other end of the station is still worked the old way - lever frame … well that is my story !
Every great layout has to have an opt out excuse Sol, and yours is as good any !
Anyway, your layout, your rules, and as it should be ! And my excuse for interior less signal boxes ? Still working on it, still working on it…
Allan.

Yeah, I can see the table now. Well, if that cabin's been modernized then you might want to make sure it has a ventilator for a modern heating system, and an air conditioner somewhere.;-)The cabin has been modernised - no lever frame as such, just an angled table with track plan and touch switches as all turnouts & signals are electric.
