Thanks to Matt C for the GWR signalboxes

Post by Oldpufferspotter »

Just a few words of thanks to Matt for his GWR signalboxes, just what I have been waiting for.
My route is GWR/LMS, the LMS side having LNWR signalboxes, now I can replace Derek's NER ones on the GWR side with the real thing.
Super!
regards Ted.

Waiting to download them at the moment, they look very good, can certainly find homes for them, possibly on Bristol to Exeter, as well as when i finally get round to properly building Weston-s-Mare circa 1960!
Currently recreating Salisbury to Exeter 50s/60s.
almost all yard, trackwork, scenery and signalling complete salisbury - wilton. Trackwork 2013 standard to Gillingham, Older beyond. - Abandoned due to newer tools in subsequent TS versions.

Think they're the wrong colour for GWR ( see here ), but WR used choc/cream everywhere so they're fine for that and it's pretty trivial to recolour. Nice work, thankyou!
My posts are my opinion, and should be read as such.

Thanks everyone, its nice to be able to give something back to the community at last. I hope to see plenty of routes with these planted on them in due course :)

Kariban, Thanks for the thanks ;-). You are right, the colour is incorrect (for the GWR Period at least), all of the reference material I have here is from the BR(W) period and those are the colours that have been used. Providing that Southern Electric says ok, I am more that willing for your self/anyone to re-skin them into more suitable textures

Thanks again,

Matt

Hehe, I couldn't resist, even before I'd put one in game:



( I think the glowy white under-roof bit is me missing a texture somewhere ). GJ Matt.

Clearly, the source of theses signal boxes is a closely guarded secret so may I ask again; from where are these excellent models obtainable? Thank you.

Glad you found them Jetstream, I was sat on the bus with varying degrees of 3G coverage trying to respond.

I think that is where the generic nature of the boxes will come into play, whilst one or two were specific to a location, most of the others were just "standard" offerings.

I think that is a white/cream texture. It seamed to fit the bill at the time. I'll try and tone it down a bit when I do an update. Nice pic by the way :)
