I suggest this for bells (from Clive himself (one of the members on here)).

Here are his other signalling pages

Hope this helps, somewhat.

I had forgoten about siam.co.uk just had another look at it, downloaded the IoW windowed version - taken a bit of time to get used to it - not as good as SIMSIG, but still good fun, on a rainy day.

A very comprehensive set of sims is available from http://www.svrsig.org/ A free Windows version is available to download (limited useage) but you can, with a small payment upgrade to the full registered version. Two full operational boxes are included, Exeter West Box and Kidderminster,but a number of other boxes are accessible to operate the lever frames (but no trains or block instruments). Its also available by CD-Rom, but the postage is steep and the CD-Rom version seems to have a bug with Kidderminster. The full registered downloaded version though is fine.
