Overall view of the School. The plain line (far left)
has TPWS and AzLM axle counter fitments. Two separate signal sequences are provided
in the wideway. The S&C layout on the right hand side of the signals features
an F, C and B switch on timber and a D switch on concrete. The NR60 switch is
located between the two colour light signal sequences. The Semaphore
Signal can be seen in the distance. The classrooms are located on the ground floor
behind the track layout. The AzLM Equipment Room can be seen in the background,
with associated trackside units on the far left hand side. | | | The
F switch complete up to the first stress transfer blocks to enable the fitment
to standard layout drawings, of a supplementary drive and supplementary detector. | The
4 aspect LED Signal with position 1 route indicator and sub (position
light) signal. |
 |  | The
Centre has a half barrier for AHB Level Crossing arrangements. The Level Crossing
apparatus includes a rig to provide a full operating sequence. | | Signal
WJ105 is provided to undertake workplace assessment of hand-signallers and
emergency communication arrangements. The equipment case behind the signal controls
the train protection warning systems (TPWS) equipment fitted to the plain line
area, and TI21 track circuit equipment. | | |
 | | The
School has a range of points machines that can be used including 5P, M3, M63,
HW 1000/2000 and SGE types. These can be interchanged, with the point machines
on the point layouts. Examples of machines with outer casings removed provide
further insight into machine workings. The machines have rigs fitted to simulate
the switch and stock rails. |
 | | The
School is home to a full AzLM ACE together with three sets of counters fitted on the
plain line layout which also features a TPWS fitment and a TI21 track circuit. |
| | | Twelve
separate racks / equipment cases provide a range of calling in points for main
and tail cables enabling a range of fault and testing scenarios. | | The
school features a full SSI location case used to drive equipment in the school
and dummy loads. |
 | | The
lever frame will be part of a mechanical layout, controlling a set of points with
Facing Point Lock and mechanical detectors together with the pair of Semaphore
Signals. |
 | | The
C switch fitted with MK II clamp lock points (although it can be fitted with point
machines). This switch is fitted with a single supplementary drive, seen in this
view mounted in the 6 foot, although an option is to run courses with the supplementary
drive mounted in the 4 foot. An HVI track circuit is fitted on this layout. |
 | | The
plain line area to the right is on concrete and comprises 8m of flat Bottom Rail
and 8m of RT60 rail. This will have an AWS mounted as well as an impedance bond,
associated with an fs2600 track circuit. The School is home to a full AzLM ACE
together with three sets of counters fitted on the plain line layout which also features
a TPWS fitment and a TI21 track circuit. |

D switch on concrete seen here with an M63 point machine. |
