    Ok, as promised here are some photos of the cabin interior I took today, I have a load more to get off the camera of the stone siding buildings and a few other bits for you.

    Yes, the narrow gauge line from the whinstone quarry came in some way up the bank side behind the water tower, with a stone crusher powered by a number of methods depending on the era, and the crushed/uncrushed whinstone was down a chute into the waiting wagon(s). The Yellow lines are the two whinstone chutes, the left hand one being uncrushed, the right hand one being crushed, the red square over the track was a weighing table for wagons with the blue building below it being the weighing house. The blue building above the whinstone siding was the house containing the drive for the stone crusher, which is to the left of the crushed whinstone chute. This has been variously a steam engine, a water wheel and a water turbine. I'll get you some photos of all these buildings and the cabin interior in the next 48 hours or so. Boris

    The signals don't wander from place to place, trust me on this! The Up platform starter was moved from the platform end to where it is now in preservation having stood at the end of the platform since 1913, the number 1 home (up direction) was double mounted with the down platform starter for a number of years, the current arrangement once more being a preservation change. The lever frame in Goathland cabin has 21 levers, some of which have been in situ since 1913. The latest addition was lever number 21 which was the only lever added in preservation and this one works the down outer home. What era are you planning to model for the station? The track plan has altered significantly over time, and knowing the era would give me some idea as to what you intend to do, I can supply track/signalling diagrams for any time period for this station. Any information you want is quite easily obtainable as are any photographs you want taking, I do have rather a unique perspective on this station after all. Will you be modelling the stone crusher and narrow gauge feeder btw?
