This is a view of the timber yard.
The nearest structure will have a roof added covering an open area to it's front. This is where a steam powered circular saw will go. On the far right of it will go a forge. The wood stores are from Will's and Atlas.
A couple of the brewery. The first is of the loading area. The second looking across the yard to the stables.
The building beyond the satble is the town fire station. This is the Skaledale one.
Still pondering over the signalbox. I have three choices.
First the Southern art-deco version modelled on Templecombe.
I do like this, but worry that it is A, a little large for the size of the yard and section of line and B, would it have windows all around in it's setting. Probably something more like the one at Portsmouth Harbour would be more in keeping.
Next is the Bachmann Hampton Hill box.
Again I like this one. Size wise it is more suitable than the last. It is however an LNER design and I havn't seen anything like it in the West Country. Though it's not a million miles from the Southern design.
The final choice is a more traditional design. This is the Heljan box, and although as supplied, it makes up into little more than a simple box, it does offer scope for improvement.
If anyone has any thoughts on this, please feel free to express them.
