Yeah, you have to be pretty dim, useless and lazy to get the name of a signalbox wrong....

soon become this though....

I'll stick the files on here or on Sync.com tomorrow, they'll do until a *proper* fix is produced---from the few photos I've found there should be a plate on the other end of the box, easily sorted as there's just a blanking plate kind of thing stuck over the signalbox nameplate area (as you can just see at the front of the box in the second image) which is easily deleted or "pushed" back inside the box.

Is it possible that this link doesn't work (anymore)?

At least DTG did not take the TSW method and not bother providing them in the first place :D

I just wonder why Network Rail see the need to put "Signal Box" after the name (on this and many others). Surely all rail staff know what a signalbox looks like!
Think of all the money they could save on paint :o

I think some "signal boxes" may have been downgraded to ground frames (although, obviously, the frames aren't on the ground!) so the distinction may be necessary.

Revised Bangor Signalbox files at https://ln.sync.com/dl/11e264ac0/yu6mk4 ... p-azy27e49
Simply drag and drop the contents into your Railworks folder, and then extract the NWC_LlandudnoSignalBox.GeoPcDx file from within the .ap archive (..\Assets\DTG\NorthWalesCoast\<NorthWalesCoastAssets.ap>\Scenery\Stations\) and paste it into the new Assets\DTG\NorthWalesCoast\Scenery\Stations\Bangor.

Then just replace the existing box with the revised version, which shows in the available items list as "NWC Bangor SignalBox"
