Ratio 554 00 Gauge WARTIME (ARP) FLAT ROOF SIGNAL BOX KIT

These specially reinforced ARP (Air Raid Precautions) signal boxes featured substantial construction, primarily to protect the locking room gear from bomb blasts during air raids in World War II. A number of similar signal box designs were still to be found around the rail network until quite recently, due to them being difficult to demolish! Based on the LMS-designed example at Town Green, Ormskirk, our new plastic kit faithfully replicates the prototype and builds into a sturdy, if not bombproof, model. The 554 includes all moulded parts required which are produced to a high standard and in base colours. Kit requires painting and light weathering.
