| Upon completion of the signal box
structure our thoughts turned to a lever frame. Having
being impressed by a Scaleway lever frame but put off by
the price, we set about constructing a scale model of a
traditional style lever frame. The design included
interlocking which would have run through the bottom of
the supporting frames.
We actually got 8 levers in the box before an open day,
it was noted that we were seeing up to 3 trains a minute.
There was no way these levers could be moved at that kind
of frequency.
The frame components were sold on Ebay for below cost
price. Still beter than the price from the scap man.
