Some great shots on here recently, every time I visit I'm repeatedly impressed!
Corfe Castle now has a new waiting room:
I still need to add some decoration inside to break up the plain wall but otherwise I think it's shaped up rather well.

The Malton Dodger swings into Driffield station past the signalbox which is now the last remaining one of 5 which the station once had. Only the Hull line to the left remains now.

A Black 5 heads back to the West Riding via Market Weighton with a return excursion from Bridlington. The turntable beside Driffield signalbox was removed about 1928 but artistic licence has restored it to use !

Hooray for artistic license! The more we preserve, the better! Great shot!

Lovely shots Lewisner, you've definitely captured the 'feel' of the junction.

I decided to have a little fun by building Fimber village which, when I started the route, I had represented by a church and a couple of trees ! It has taken a solid day and a half and even so, the buildings are only approximations to the originals. In the first shot we are looking east with a train visible in the distance. The Battenburg field will be my next job to replace.

A view of the village looking west. For some reason it has a computer museum housed in some farm sheds https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_tK0YuN7Ek

Swanage gains a new water tower:
@Tanker46, I've made and uploaded two additional platform signs (platforms 3 and 4) to the DLS for your route. I'll get around to doing more in the near future as well as some of those other signs we discussed.
