Hello

 

Apologies if this has been asked as the forum search function seems to be on the blink, does anyone know what the origins are of the Farish Scenecraft 42-176 stone signal box please?

 

I am wondering with its light blue window frames if I can get away with it in a remote Scottish setting...

Gives an over view of signal boxes and while the hipped roof common no stone one.   however:

check Arnside box and it looks, even to the finials to have been the inspiration.  

 

I have twice asked PECO about an N version of the Highland timber signal cabin done in OO but to no precise answer either way.  Also asked Severn Models to consider and etched version - this we talked about at Leamington club show and some research  done so perhaps that way in time.
