Southern Signalman!

To misuse a quote from I know not where - The South will rise again!

Mind you some of the Ramsgate - Charing Cross line via Ashford is still semaphores. Javelin by Semaphore anyone?

Just goes to show how observant I'm not - I didn't notice the change. mind you Sturry still has a rather pretty crossing box. (which if you create a mirror image looks remarkably like one of the Skaledale ones)
