Chard Junction Signalling Panel

Despite Covid-19 and the lockdowns, we managed to achieve quite a lot in 2020

Looking for a signaller who used this panel. We are about to connect and programme the Yeovil Junction communication buttons and lights. We want to know how the signaller accepted a train from Yeovil Junction and what order things happened.

New Year - new ideas
I have the offer of another plunger - so we could simulate both Honiton and Yeovil Junction. How about a signalling day at Yeovil Railway Centre? 'Bring along your signalling exhibit'
Any offers/suggestions? http://www.yeovilrailway.freeservers.com/chardsignallingpanel.htmlhttp://www.yeovilrailway.freeservers.com/chardsignallingpanel.html

Yeovil Railway Centre has steam train days, visits from main line engines for servicing, special events and a well stocked shop.

Looking for anyone locally using JMRI with C/MRI to plan programming a simulator for the Signalling panel

We will be open on the next 2 Steam Train Days at Yeovil Junction June 9 and 23 - lots of work to be done, on the other Sundays as well June 16 and 30

The panel will be lit up showing how far we have progressed, at the Model Railway Days on Saturday and Sunday 27 and 28 April. After that we will dismantle the existing simulation covering Axminster East Junction, and rebuilding it to make it more realistic.

We will be working at Yeovil Railway Centre next Sunday 14th April, and of course at the Open Days for Easter Egg Hunts on 21 and 22 April

Last week we started working on the third connector (only 15 to go after that), made a small update to the sample simulation at Axminster East Junction, and discovered JMRI as a possible interface to a control PC. Any expertise with using JMRI (Java Model Railway Interface) would be helpful

Thanks to those who have recently 'liked' our page.
We will be at the Seam Train Days on Sunday 7th April and Easter 21st and 22nd April. We are still looking for more help - come and see how we are progressing...
