Coppermill Signal Box Destroyed! AGAIN!

Post by ptlrcecil » Mon May 03, 2010 8:02 pm

Well after finally finishing the rebuild of Coppermill signal box this morning after a well known forum member smashed it to pieces. I was building its new base this afternoon, I had it all placed together with the signal box on it for clearance tests when the cat strolled in and managed to bring the whole lot down. Needless to say the signal box is not looking too healthy and neithers by blood pressure. Oh well back to the workshop, AGAIN! :x :x :x

Don't worry Cecil, the proceeds of the Signal Box Disaster appeal will be making their way to you on Sunday, although presumerbly all the cat will have to put in it is a furball...

Concretes all well and good but when the signal box is on a 4ft elevation even a concrete one wouldnt come out too well I fear.
