This is the reason for the sale of the turntable, a BLT design set somewhere in the West Country, that I first drew up in 2014 which has gone through many tweeks and the like at intervals since then.
I think that I have the signals correct, I am not sure as to whether a ground signal would be needed in the bay platform for entry into the siding or not and similarly, whether a ground signal would be needed from the siding into the bay. The gap at the end of the bay may yet be an end loading facility. The level crossing in lieu of the usual overbridge is that there would be insufficient distance between the signals and the toe of the first point if they were placed elsewhere - other than off the board altogether, in which case an overbridge would be first choice.
Each square is 6" x 6" and overall size of main board 16' x 2', wired for DCC with the points DC controlled with Tortoise motors. The buildings are a mixture of laser cut kits from varying sources and will be brick clad. I am undecided as to what form the backscene will take, I'm trying to steer away from my usual brick retaining wall.
All comments welcome,
regards
Mike
