Interesting that the pictures are taken at Highley, here's my rendition of the signal box:




Made from the Ratio kit.  I used Slaters embossed card for the lower walls (kit walls didn't have good enough detail) and I also made the chimney from scratch (kit wasn't high enough).

There were pictures of the layout taken last night - I will post these in another thread when I get them.

G'day upnick,

Thought I'd share a pick of the Cattle Dock I built which is based on the one at Highley. The dimensions are pretty much the same, except that I built this on a stand alone stone platform with side steps, unlike Highley's level approach from the road side.




Cheers, Gary.

That's a cracker, gary, I have tried the '7 holes per post' thing more than once and given up [for now]
