I was looking through youtube videos recently and came across this one.

When I was there in July, I was actually able to have a go at setting routes for a few trains - all under supervision of course.

This is the link to the video:

I'm pretty sure that anyone visiting the Didcot Railway Centre could try their hand at being a signalman on a real, although now obsolete, control panel.

Great stuff!

Everything that you make will be useful - providing it's made of chocolate.

I remember that visit. First time I had ever been in a PSB and it was extremely interesting. I remain a member of the SPS and the work on the panel, both the dismantling and reassembling, was great fun.
