Hi all
I wonder if you can help
Lyn and I are looking for the sign that used to be at the end of Underground platforms. It was red with (I think) white lettering and used to advise passengers not to go any further and told staff not to touch any rail
Through the 60's and 70's, the design didn't change but some time after it did, maybe twice
The sign we're looking for is the original 60's/70's one
Google pics has only got the the newer ones
The YouTube video of Horn Lane layout shows it, but it's not clear enough to use or see. The only one I can find is in ScaleScenes signage but it's the BR version
It's not for commercial use, it's just for our 4mm layout
If anyone has a picture of the sign the could email over that we could use or make a copy of in publisher that would be great
Thanks for any help
Dave
PS We got some LU trains testing now you can see them here:

21146 beat me to it - I took some pics at Acton a while back.
Do you know the dimensions? I forgot to measure them when I took pics. D'oh!

Hi
No I don't I was going to guess about 3ft across so I was going to use coral to scale it down using 12mm as a start for the width
I am just so happy to have found it, it really will finish the platform end of nice

I've done one beter than Metroland, took the picture, wrote down the dimensions, can't find the bit of paper!! From memory, though, I'm sure 3ft wide is correct!
