Modeller’s Inspiration No. 140. Depot Lighting. Marshalling areas & depots require good lighting to enable a 24hour service plus of course with the British Winter time where it is dark by 4pm in mid-December, it is imperative to have good lighting to provide a safe environment for staff when out on track. Once again, lots of different types can be seen. Some are quite significant structures with multiple lighting heads whereas other may only have a couple. From a 00 gauge modelling perspective, non-working lighting towers are available from Scale Model Scenery (LX450-OO) and Bachmann (44-561). Other online providers can offer working variants to enable the modeller to recreate this important piece of railway infrastructure on their layouts.
