Signal box for Newton.......?

Hi
A while ago I asked for help with signal boxes and I quickly got to work with the ruler and pencil and created a 1/76th scale drawing in mm using Camborners method of door height and estimates so its probably around 1/80th but I dont mind really so here a few old pics of it, Noakesy may remember them as I showed him them over a month ago, sadly I can't find the drawing but I am still looking but for now here are the front and right hand sides of the building:

You may also realise that the side view has no chimney or stairs but they will be added. (sorry about pic quality.)

Hi, as of now I can say the design for the 'box is finished I just need to build it but before I do I was wondering what colours a 'box from the LNER region in around the 1920s-30s would be for doors, woodwork drains etc, thank you

See the first post on the 'Scenic Route' section. All the info you need is there.

You're not the only ones. Took me ages to remember where I put that.
