    All the platform starter signals were this pattern, as you say the original Caledonian design, only converted from lower quadrant in the 1950s. Not an unusual feature, Leeds Central had a similar configuration. There was an even more unusual signal on the approach, instead of calling on signals there was a ringed distant, signal 45 on this diagram (copyright signalbox.org). When cleared this indicated to the driver that the route was clear to the bufferstops. Jim

    What is purple and conquered half the world? Alexander the Grape! What does Alexander the Great and Winnie the Pooh have in common? The same middle name!

    Many houses in Clydebank had fixtures, fittings, curtains etc etc remarkably similar to those in cabins on the QE2.

    In the late 60s, D8500 was kept in pristine BR blue and used on ECS workings between Glasgow Central and Larkfield Carraige Depot. They were also used as bankers on Shap for a short while. Jim

    Hi - very interested to see this project, I also did a model based on Buchanan Street, it can be seen in my layout thread. I notice you were having bother finding the exact location of the station. I lost count of the number of times I was asked this, so I did this overlay. Buchanan Street Bus Station can be seen bottom right, Cowcadden Road is just above. Jim

    Seen this at Schipol Airport. In the early 1990s, the story goes, the cleaning manager at the Airport was trying to reduce “spillage” around urinals. He settled on etching small, photorealistic images of flies on the urinals, right near the drain. The idea was to give people something to aim at. Jim

    Pretty much gone now, what was the up main onto which the HST is joining is now the up platform line with much lower speed (reduced from 90mph to 40mph) so much less can't required. Jim

    I have a theory that most UFOs are time machines, charter trips from the future to see the past, strict rules that you mustn't interact. The spike in sightings in the 1960s was due to large numbers of future railway enthusiasts wanting to see the last years of steam!
