OK How would the (1.) semaphore look similar to A. or B. or something else, should the bracket for the shunt signal be on the right as the head shunt is on the right?

About 18 months ago I joined a local club which didn't work out and so joined another!

Because of this when I had modelling time I spent it doing research, club evening's and homework for the clubs and so nothing got done on my layout and therefore decided not to rejoin for 2020, I have stayed as a friend of the club and will go to their open days etc.

Because of this over the last month things have progressed. Yard lighting installed (ladders still to fit after some more scenic get done)
I have experimented with some baseboard cover, where I want some grass scrub land I wanted just a bit of unevenness, I used toilet paper and PVA-water mix for fine mache spread it out and put a full sheet on top and gently tamped it down with the end of a brush. have to paint, apply scenic's and static grass.

I can't find this wonderful coaling stage on your layout. Where is it ? :oops: Or maybe it's on another layout ?
