Perfect for: N gauge modellers recreating Southern Region steam-era mainlines, branch lines, and traditional semaphore-signalled rail networks.

Why this accessory matters

Distant signals were essential to traditional British railway operation, giving drivers advance notice of the aspect shown by the next stop signal. The Southern Railway lattice design is a distinctive regional variation, widely used across Southern Region routes.

How to use it

Position trackside before a controlled stop signal, ensuring clear sighting distance for approaching trains. Best used in pairs or signal sections for operational realism.

This is a plastic model. Assembly may be required depending on kit variant. It is not a toy.
