Hi, Has anyone any images of turn outs and switches for the Midland circa 1900 ish? Particularly looking for detail on the stretcher bars etc. Any images for the ballasting of this period would also be very helpful. Thanks Tim |

Thanks Rodney for both links.... Much appreciated. The detailed discussions on signalling will be interesting reading - haven't even started to think about that. Regards Tim |

Hello Tim Did you find any photos of MR turnout stretcher bars (circa 1900) in Midland Record? I am also modelling MR 1900 and am looking for photos of typical turnouts and Double slip to see the timbering arrangements (12" and 14" widths) as well as the interlacing or long timbers on a crossover for example.
