nice find, there is a lady close to me that has one that she said she has had for 40 years that she wonts to sell. I really would like to have it but not for the 1000. she thinks its worth. :crazy:

I see the hinges are on the right whereas most of our signals are hinged on the left. Of course they drive on the wrong side of the road in Great Britain. :crazy:

And full circle, and right and left handed cutaway tunnels. Left opening doors were an option.

Considering there are no drip edges. :drool:

You can turn it to the left then flip it to the right, flip it back to the left and shake it all about, do the hokie pokie and lay it out flat then you'd have a horizontal that we could all talk about. :crazy:

There has to be more to see and do.

Are you sure about that?

I believe 'special' cutaway tunnels were available to special order, however I've never seen nor heard of there being full circles for ATE/Plessey heads.

Not sure if they ever sold, but this manufacturers book has a mini-catalog in the back, assigning them a partnumber and all.

Ah, I never knew that! :grin:

Mind you, I've not seen any pictures of them, but I assume there were some around.

Are they longer than the standard tunnel?

I'm trying to think why you'd want to spec a full circle instead of a tunnel, apart from when longer-than-usual visors are used instead of louvres at skewed junctions (they are often the only time you'll see full circle visors in the UK).
