Starting from the lower left is the Tyer's Token Instrument for single line working atop a cupboard. This is not needed for Hewish Gates but I made it for other locations. One aspect of the hobby I like is learning about real railway practises. Not being a railwayman myself I did not appreciate that the hoop passed between signalman and driver is not the token itself. The token is in fact a key that is taken from the token instrument and placed in a pouch attached to the hoop.
In the top left corner is a sink unit comprising cupboards and a Belfast sink. The gap next to it is where the Romesse stove is located (it is attached to the stove pipe which is fixed to the roof not shown here). Next is a table and chair and then the booking desk with the train register on top.
Beneath the far window is the level crossing gate operating wheel.
Attached to the back of the instrument shelf is the track diagram that was missing from the photo in the previous posting.
On the side wall next to the sink and not visible here is the clock and notice board.
I know there is no telephone or signalman installed but have I missed anything important that could be modelled?
