The signal box is correct after the war and the severe damadge done to the German railways they used coach bodies (older designs than the model used here) on brick plinths!!, I have seen one on a good early 1950's N layout.

First class. If only I had room for a layout like this, and deep enough pockets. Wink

There is something about G scale - sort of brings back the 'playing with trains' times. Cool

But yes, deep pockets are needed. Confused
