Description: This is a model of a BR(MR) round post, upper quadrant signal and a BR (ex LNER) ground signal. The prototype controlled the ext from Aylesbury loco yard.
This is the first signal for the Club's Aylesbury Town(P4) layout. It was a test bed for the construction of the dozen or so signals required for he layout. It is interesting not just because of the ground signal but also because it doubled as a telegraph pole - note the two insulators near the top of the post.
The signals were made from a selection of brass/NS tube, rod, channel and wire plus some etches and castings. The ground signal, in particular, really tested my soldering skills - and my eyesight! It all works and well be operated by under-board servos which will include -digital' bounce.
