Okay, on with the signal-cabin - assembling the main structure.

 

This is a real 'multimedia' model - acrylic, card, plasticard etc....

The 'upperworks' consist mainly of the four sections seen in 'part 1' - here they have been assembled with 'PVA'

 

The next job was to assemble the 'locking-room' base - this was a simple(-ish) task, using 0.030" plasticard..

Here we are just waiting the crane to lift the 'glass-house' into position! The observant will note that the 'floor' is already in place in the lever-room

Okay - the crane's been and gone. The next job is to clad the structure -

with 0.20" 'Evergreen' plank cladding, framed around the corners with simple strip..(and yes, I've taken care of the wayward door lintel..!)

 

Just a case now of going round the building and continuing. However, I do need to get a 'signal-box detailing kit'! That 'glasshouse will be pretty unforgiving if it's not there...

 

TTFN!
