259 Ratio Wartime ARP Flat Roof Signal Box Kit.
The kit builds up into one of the wartime ""air raid precaution"" style signal boxes. Provided with a strengthened concrete flat roof, these buildings were designed to withstand damage caused by a bomb blast, an added risk for any railway installation during World War II. Not necessarily aesthetically pleasing to the eye they nevertheless became a feature of many railway locations around the UK. That said, not many remain standing today, as new signalling schemes have rendered them obsolete.
Produced in brick-coloured plastic, this injection-moulded kit will build into a model with a footprint of 78mm x 29mm. A separate moulding of white window frames completes the kit and the modeller should use the plastic packaging to represent the window glazing. The finishing touches can be added by painting.
