North Dorset Railway has launched a production model of its signal box at Shillingstone Station.

Father and son Brian and Joe Rose, two long-term volunteers at North Dorset Railway at Shillingstone Station, have over the last year developed a new model first in ‘00’ gauge with Shillingstone’s iconic signal box. A first production run of 20 ‘00’ gauge models are packed and ready to go!

With their new company, Rose & Rose Models, they have already developed additions to the North Dorset Railway Series, including other buildings from the station: porter’s lodge, permanent way hut, post and packing hut, and even the greenhouse. All will be available soon as production models.

You can buy the signal box (and other railway models) online at www.shillingstonestationonline.co.uk, or call in at the station shop at Shillingstone Station (DT11 0SA).
