The Hornby resin boxes don't seem to feature interior detail, but I would have thought that the price reflects this.

 

It should be easy enough to cut out a piece of thick card or plasticard to fit, and then (when you've established a nice, easy fit from beneath) add detailing from a Wills or Springside signalbox interior detailing kit?

yes it was only £19 but the R8005 kit with interior is only £16.75, go figure.

at least when i get round to it i'll have something that's unique

the springside kit looks good

to make matters even worse my Dad had been telling me for ages that I didn't have a Hornby signal box in his loft.

Well today i went over and found it, still in it's box.

it's the R503 which looks exactly the same as the R8005 and the sticker on it says it cost £2.84 !!!

could have saved myself £20 !!!!
