... track diagram of Cockett Station Goods yard, you will see two trap or catch points just after the first turnout in the yard. To put the layout into context there is a 1:200 rising gradient over virtually the whole length of the branch from the station to the yard. My original thoughts were that the trap points were to protect the turnout and therefore slaved to it's lever, but later thoughts incline to thinking they are to prevent runaways down the gradient, and would therefore have their own lever. Any thoughts?1911_071617_150000000.png posted: 8 May 2013 06:58 from: JFS Have you got the signal box diagram?

Cheers, Howard No. Looked in TNA, but the only copy they've got is after the layout was rationalised and the Goods Branch abolished. In any case, the Goods branch was not operated from the signal box. I presume there was a ground frame or individual point levers Mark posted ...
