Lady Gretton in charge of Curwen Atlantic 751 “John H Gretton” awaits the road on platform 2.

The Atlantic  is a very capable loco and will solo handle the 9 car sets as well as its bigger American cousins.

Note the rather complex prototypical lower quadrant semaphore gantry, all power worked and locked into the points

The smaller  lower signals are for shunt working such as loco turning etc and in the case of the straight ahead form each platform, only give authority up to the top curve signal allowing the light engine to then enter the triangle
