TMD Boundary fencing

[TimberValleyRailway]

Hi all,

 

No idea if this is in the right place - if it isn't, mods, please let me know.

 

I'm modelling a modern image TMD (GWR - Firstgroup) and am wondering how it is fenced off from the rest of the network. I've got Wills palisade fencing around the perimeter of the property but am unsure how it is seperated from the rest of the network - see hastily drawn diagram attached!

 

Sorry if it's in the wrong place!

 

Thanks and best wishes

Most of the TOC depots down this end don’t have anything, private yards have gates of varying degrees. Most are simple, some are substantial. 
The entrance into Southampton docks at Canute Rd being an example.

Neville Hill, Heaton, Newton Heath, Blackpool and Hull Botanic are not fenced off from the running lines, there is just the occasional single handrail barrier to stop staff straying off walking routes. 

 

Security is achieved by treating the running line as a barrier in itself and extending the lineside palisade fences far enough along the tracks at either end to deter trespass so far as is reasonably practical. If you're already on the track you can just walk in, but you can't claim you got there by accident.
