SEMAPHORE HEAVEN
HST Set 253041 enters Newton Abbot and passes the West Signal Box and some of its associated signals in August 1986
Newton Abbot has to be the pick of the stations [for me at least] in Devon for it's collection of signals. Whilst Exeter was perhaps busier I always found NA to be a delight.
On one occasion [1978 I think] a small group of us were invited over by the 'shed' supervisor to come and have a look around, this had coincided with a visit by a pair of class40's visiting.
