Here are a few shots of the semaphore signals at Greenford Station on the disused South Ruislip to Old Oak Common branch. These Signals are due to be replaced soon by the coloured light signal when Crossrail goes ahead, so i was kind of lucky to get them in their final days of working. Sorry about me talking, my arms kind of hurt and my battery was low.
Chiltern Railways Trains and Wrexham & Shropshire Trains were diverted to Paddington due to engineering works to the Marylebone line.
Semaphore line
A semaphore telegraph, optical telegraph, shutter telegraph chain, Chappe telegraph, or Napoleonic semaphore is a system of conveying information by means of visual signals, using towers with pivoting shutters, also known as blades or paddles.Information is encoded by the position of the mechanical elements; it is read when the shutter is in a fixed position.

Footage of the one remaining semaphore signal on the Hurstbridge line, taken during a thunder storm... For added effect.
For many years the Hurstbridge line has been the last major strong-hold of mechanical safeworking systems on the Melbourne suburban network, featuring several semaphore signals and 'Staff' working beyond Greensborough. This is all coming to an end in 2013, with all semaphores bar one having been replaced in the last few months, and Automatic Track Control replacing the 'Minature Electric Staff' between Greensborough and Eltham, and the 'Train Staff and Ticket' between Eltham and Diamond Creek. The Diamond Creek-Hurstbridge section is still being worked by 'Staff and Ticket' until the last of the new signals are ready to be commissioned. Here we see an X'trapolis set arriving from the city with an evening peak service passing the one remaining semaphore - the Hurstbridge Home signal - and travelling under the protection of a Diamond Creek-Hurstbridge 'Ticket.' The new colour light signal can be seen behind the semaphore, ready for the last stage of the upgrade. After dropping off passengers at the platform, the train shunts back clear of the signal then enters the yard to stable. Once this signal is replaced the only semaphore signals on the entire network will be those at Flemington Racecourse (only used for stabling and special events), which are also due for replacement.
Note: This signal, along with the Staff and Ticket working between Diamond Creek and Hurstbridge, was finally decommissioned on Friday 22nd of March 2013.

In 1999, we followed CSX' ex-B&O; Cincinnati-Indianapolis main line westward to photograph the soon-to-be-removed upper-quadrant semaphores. Note the tri-light "Darth Vader" signals already in place at some locations.
The first shot is of the overpass at Connersville, Indiana, where the B&O; crosses over the Whitewater Valley Railroad.
After that, we see various sets of semaphores as we head west.
0:06-0:36 - Glenwood, Indiana
0:37-1:04 - Mauzy, Indiana
1:05-1:21 - Rushville, Indiana, which was once served by FIVE railroads. A Nickel Plate branch and Big Four branch paralleled each other from the north. The Big Four crossed the B&O; and headed south to North Vernon, while the NKP merged up with the B&O.; The Big Four was abandoned in 1973, while the NKP was severed north of Sexton in 1989. The NKP is now a short line called the Honey Creek Railroad and runs from the B&O; interchange north to the grain elevator in Sexton. An ex-Conrail SW-7 sits in the grass. A PRR branch left the St. Louis main line at Camblestown, and came into Rushville from the northeast and merged up with the B&O.; It too, is long gone. In addition to the B&O;, an interurban once paralleled it from Connersville to Indianapolis.
1:22-1:36 - Arlington, Indiana
1:37-1:46 - Gwynneville, Indiana. Note the interurban substation across the tracks.
1:47-1:49 - Morristown, Indiana, where a wig-wag signal was located until 1996.
1:50-2:13 - Fountaintown, Indiana where a semaphore sits adjacent to a B&O; CPL.
Still photos of this tour can be found here:

All of these semaphores were replaced within a year of our visit.

Some of the last remaining active railroad semaphore signals in North America are located on the BNSF Glorieta Sub which is part of the former ATSF Raton Pass line. Due to a lack of freight traffic BNSF refuses to make any capitol investments on the line which has resulted in its becoming somewhat of a living museum.
Here we see a total of nine US&S; model T-2 semaphore signals located at the ends of passing sidings. The line is run under ABS rules with manual traffic control, not CTC so the siding signals automatically clear after our train passes. The first example is at the east end of the Chapelle siding, the second raises all the way to a Clear indication.

By request, a video focusing on the remaining semaphore signaling, signal boxes, manned level crossings and token-worked single line on the Cumbrian Coast line from Barrow to Derwent Jct.. There are a few scenes in common with the "37 Heaven" video, but most of the action is units. With Network Rail's commitment to eliminating these types of operations, these facilities are living on borrowed time.

Public domain film from the Library of Congress Prelinger Archive, slightly cropped to remove uneven edges, with the aspect ratio corrected, and mild video noise reduction applied.
The soundtrack was also processed with volume normalization, noise reduction, clipping reduction, and/or equalization (the resulting sound, though not perfect, is far less noisy than the original).
Telegraph (from Greek: tele τηλε "far", and graphein γραφειν "writing") is the long-distance transmission of messages without the physical exchange of an object bearing the message. Thus semaphore is a method of telegraphy whereas pigeon post is not.
...In the 19th century, the harnessing of electricity brought about the means to transmit signals via electrical telegraph. The advent of radio in the early 1900s brought about radiotelegraphy and other forms of wireless telegraphy. In the Internet age, telegraphic means developed greatly in sophistication and ease of use, with natural language interfaces that hide the underlying code, allowing such technologies as electronic mail and instant
Telegraphs as such have existed in Europe from as early as 1792, then in form of a semaphore line, or optical telegraph, that sent messages to a distant observer through line-of-sight signals. In 1837, American artist-turned inventor Samuel F. B. Morse conducted the first successful experiment with an electrical recording
n 1851, the New York and Mississippi Valley Printing Telegraph Company was organized in Rochester, New York by Hiram Sibley and others, with the goal of creating one great telegraph system with unified and efficient operations. Meanwhile, Ezra Cornell had bought back one of his bankrupt companies and renamed it the New York & Western Union Telegraph Company. Originally fierce competitors, by 1855 both groups were finally convinced that consolidation was their only alternative for progress. The merged company was named The Western Union Telegraph Company at Cornell's insistence, and Western Union was born.
Western Union bought out smaller companies rapidly, and by 1860 its lines reached from the East Coast to the Mississippi River, and from the Great Lakes to the Ohio River. In 1861 it opened the first transcontinental telegraph. In 1865 it formed the Russian American Telegraph in an attempt to link America to Europe, via Alaska, into Siberia, to Moscow. (This project was abandoned in 1867.) The company enjoyed phenomenal growth during the next few years. Its capitalization rose from $385,700 in 1858 to $41 million in 1876. However it was top-heavy with stock issues, and faced growing competition from several firms, especially the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph Company--itself taken over by financier Jay Gould in 1875. In 1881 Gould took control of Western Union.
It introduced the first stock ticker in 1866, and a standardized time service in 1870. The next year, 1871, the company introduced its money transfer service, based on its extensive telegraph network. In 1879, Western Union left the telephone business, having lost a patent lawsuit with Bell Telephone Company. As the telephone replaced the telegraph, money transfer would become its primary business.
When the Dow Jones Transportation Average stock market index for the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) was created in 1884, Western Union was one of the original eleven all-American companies tracked.
By 1900 Western Union operated a million miles of telegraph lines and two international cables.
20th century
The company continued to grow, acquiring more than 500 smaller competitors. Its monopoly power was almost complete in 1943 when it bought Postal Telegraph, Inc., its chief rival.
In 1914 Western Union offered the first charge card for consumers; in 1923 it introduced teletypewriters to join its branches. Singing telegrams followed in 1933, intercity fax in 1935, and commercial intercity microwave communications in 1943. In 1958, it began offering Telex service to customers in New York City. Western Union introduced the 'Candygram' in the 1960s, a box of chocolates accompanying a telegram featured in a commercial with the rotund Don Wilson. In 1964, Western Union initiated a transcontinental microwave system to replace land
Western Union became the first American telecommunications corporation to maintain its own fleet of geosynchronous communication satellites, starting in
Due to declining profits and mounting debts, Western Union slowly began to divest itself of telecommunications-based assets starting in the early

A semaphore telegraph, optical telegraph, shutter telegraph chain, Chappe telegraph, or Napoleonic semaphore is a system of conveying information by means of visual signals, using towers with pivoting shutters, also known as blades or paddles. Information is encoded by the position of the mechanical elements; it is read when the shutter is in a fixed position. These systems were popular in the late 18th to early 19th century. In modern usage, "semaphore line" and "optical telegraph" may refer to a relay system using flag semaphore, and "optical telegraph" may refer to a heliograph (optical telegraphy using mirror-directed sunlight reflections).
Semaphore lines were a precursor of the electrical telegraph. They were far faster than post riders for bringing a message over long distances, but far more expensive and less private than the electrical telegraph lines which would replace them. The distance that an optical telegraph can bridge is limited by geography and weather; thus, in practical use, most optical telegraphs used lines of relay stations to bridge longer distances.

You can also view this video of our project at Semaphore on our blog: http://www.dowlinghomes.com.au/home-extensions-semaphore-4/ Fill in an on-line enquiry form or call us today to request a free quote. Address: Dowling Homes 366 Unley Road Unley Park SA 5061 Kym Dowling 0409 829 871 Here's a transcription of the video: Hi Everyone. Kym Dowling here from Dowling Homes and I'm very pleased to show you the almost finished product of our project here at Esplanade. I hope you've been able to look at the previous videos of this project because, what a transformation this has turned out to be. We started off with a symmetrical villa that had a very tired lean to section at the back that we completely pulled away, and a hundred and sixty sq m addition, and look at the size of this - the beautiful high ceilings, lots of glass, it's just turned out to be a cracker of a job, and we at Dowling Homes have designed this for the owners. We design and build. We're very proud of this final product. I'll just show you the extent of this build - I'm going to walk back to what was the original rear wall of the house, and here we are, all the way back here. So we'll give you a rundown room by room of this spectacular build at Semaphore. Over this side we have the theatre room, and this has been designed with Soundstop gyprock and extra dense insulation to soundproof the room, and this is the dining area, nice and generous. You can see the length of this table, and it almost looks lost in this area. Across this side, we've got six metres of 2 pack and vinyl wrap kitchen cabinets with stone benchtops, and I think that would be the envy of most chefs in Adelaide. This is just a beautiful kitchen and absolutely enormous. We've got two ovens, a coffee maker and steamer, fully appointed, so this is absolutely beautiful. Over this side is the living area. Some additional features are the below floor power points, and there we are - you can actually plug your appliances into that and then close the lid back down, and that allows the cables to stick out without any trip areas. So, nice little touch. We'll now just go down to the remaining part of the build area. This is the newly fitted laundry with stone benchtops and 2 pack cupboards, and this flows through into the brand new bathroom. Some nice little touches in this area - walk in shower so there's no sill on the floor, so no tripping points, a nice stone bath and just clean simple white tones, it looks really good. We'll now go to the other side of the property. As we walk through, just take a look at the aluminium doors that appear on all the internal doors here. Natural anodised aluminium with frosted glass. That is really nice. It just introduces that apartment, commercial look to the property. Over the other side of this really wide lobby, we have the door that leads into the master suite, and in turn, walking through this open area into a combined dressing room and ensuite. And this ensuite has turned out really nice and have a look at these beautiful dressing room cupboards with pull down hanging space which is a nice little touch, it just maximises the storage up top, and on this side we have a really generous walk in shower as well. So that is the extent of the areas in the build section and I'll just go out now and show you the outside look. And this is my favourite bit, the al fresco area. I just love al fresco areas, and this is a real cracker. Four metres wide, fourteen metres long and have a look at this stacker door system. This is absolutely beautiful, and this opens up the whole four and a half metres of uninterrupted in to out socialising. I love it, it's really good. So this is our project here at Esplanade. We're really hoping to get one final video walk through once it's all finished and cleaned up. In the meantime, if this is something you're looking at doing on your property, feel free to give us a ring at Dowling Homes, or jump on the website www.dowlinghomes.com.au and please, make an enquiry and we can make it happen for you. We can design it. We can build it. I'm Kym Dowling from Dowling Homes. Bye for now.

The Last Working Semaphore Signals on a London Branchline.
Here are a few shots of the semaphore signals at Greenford Station on the disused South Ruislip to Old Oak Common branch. These Signals are due to be replaced soon by the coloured light signal when Crossrail goes ahead, so i was kind of lucky to get them in their final days of working. Sorry about me talking, my arms kind of hurt and my battery was low. Chiltern Railways Trains and Wrexham & Shropshire Trains were diverted to Paddington due to engineering works to the Marylebone line. -

Last Semaphore Signal on the Hurstbridge Line 21/2/13
Footage of the one remaining semaphore signal on the Hurstbridge line, taken during a thunder storm... For added effect. For many years the Hurstbridge line has been the last major strong-hold of mechanical safeworking systems on the Melbourne suburban network, featuring several semaphore signals and 'Staff' working beyond Greensborough. This is all coming to an end in 2013, with all semaphores bar one having been replaced in the last few months, and Automatic Track Control replacing the 'Minature Electric Staff' between Greensborough and Eltham, and the 'Train Staff and Ticket' between Eltham and Diamond Creek. The Diamond Creek-Hurstbridge section is still being worked by 'Staff and Ticket' until the last of the new signals are ready to be commissioned. Here we see an X'trapolis set arr... -
B&O; Indy Line Semaphores 1999
Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/csxproductions In 1999, we followed CSX' ex-B&O; Cincinnati-Indianapolis main line westward to photograph the soon-to-be-removed upper-quadrant semaphores. Note the tri-light "Darth Vader" signals already in place at some locations. The first shot is of the overpass at Connersville, Indiana, where the B&O; crosses over the Whitewater Valley Railroad. After that, we see various sets of semaphores as we head west. 0:06-0:36 - Glenwood, Indiana 0:37-1:04 - Mauzy, Indiana 1:05-1:21 - Rushville, Indiana, which was once served by FIVE railroads. A Nickel Plate branch and Big Four branch paralleled each other from the north. The Big Four crossed the B&O; and headed south to North Vernon, while the NKP merged up with the B&O.; The Big Four was abandon... -
BNSF Glorieta Sub Semaphore Action
Some of the last remaining active railroad semaphore signals in North America are located on the BNSF Glorieta Sub which is part of the former ATSF Raton Pass line. Due to a lack of freight traffic BNSF refuses to make any capitol investments on the line which has resulted in its becoming somewhat of a living museum. Here we see a total of nine US&S; model T-2 semaphore signals located at the ends of passing sidings. The line is run under ABS rules with manual traffic control, not CTC so the siding signals automatically clear after our train passes. The first example is at the east end of the Chapelle siding, the second raises all the way to a Clear indication. Video taken from the rear of eastbound Amtrak Train #4, the Southwest Chief. -
Cumbrian Semaphores & Signal Boxes
By request, a video focusing on the remaining semaphore signaling, signal boxes, manned level crossings and token-worked single line on the Cumbrian Coast line from Barrow to Derwent Jct.. There are a few scenes in common with the "37 Heaven" video, but most of the action is units. With Network Rail's commitment to eliminating these types of operations, these facilities are living on borrowed time. -

Telegraph History: "Telegram for America" circa 1956 Western Union 20min
more at "History, technology and 1950s-era practice of the telegraphy business." Public domain film from the Library of Congress Prelinger Archive, slightly cropped to remove uneven edges, with the aspect ratio corrected, and mild video noise reduction applied. The soundtrack was also processed with volume normalization, noise reduction, clipping reduction, and/or equalization (the resulting sound, though not perfect, is far less noisy than the original). Telegraph (from Greek: tele τηλε "far", and graphein γραφειν "writing") is the long-distance transmission of messages without the physical exchange of an object bearing the message. Thus semaphore is a method of telegraphy whereas pigeon post is not. ...In the 19th century, the harnessing of electricity brought about the means to transmi... -

Chiefs Warbonnets & Semaphores
Santa Fe's old main line across Kansas, Colorado and New Mexico in 1995-96. There were still a number of through freights running as well as Amtrak's Southwest Chief and the York Canyon coal trains. At the time, semaphores were extant from La Junta-Trinidad and Raton to just north of Albuquerque. There were also a number of crossings with pedestal mounted wig-wag signals. At the south end of Wagon Mound siding, a wig-wag and semaphore stood side by side. Also shown is a brief side trip on the La Junta-Pueblo line, and an SP train which I assume was a detour move as it picked up a Santa Fe leader to work east of La Junta in ATS territory. -

Footage of the one remaining semaphore signal on the Hurstbridge line, taken during a thunder storm... For added effect.
For many years the Hurstbridge line has been the last major strong-hold of mechanical safeworking systems on the Melbourne suburban network, featuring several semaphore signals and 'Staff' working beyond Greensborough. This is all coming to an end in 2013, with all semaphores bar one having been replaced in the last few months, and Automatic Track Control replacing the 'Minature Electric Staff' between Greensborough and Eltham, and the 'Train Staff and Ticket' between Eltham and Diamond Creek. The Diamond Creek-Hurstbridge section is still being worked by 'Staff and Ticket' until the last of the new signals are ready to be commissioned. Here we see an X'trapolis set arriving from the city with an evening peak service passing the one remaining semaphore - the Hurstbridge Home signal - and travelling under the protection of a Diamond Creek-Hurstbridge 'Ticket.' The new colour light signal can be seen behind the semaphore, ready for the last stage of the upgrade. After dropping off passengers at the platform, the train shunts back clear of the signal then enters the yard to stable. Once this signal is replaced the only semaphore signals on the entire network will be those at Flemington Racecourse (only used for stabling and special events), which are also due for replacement.
Note: This signal, along with the Staff and Ticket working between Diamond Creek and Hurstbridge, was finally decommissioned on Friday 22nd of March 2013.

In 1999, we followed CSX' ex-B&O; Cincinnati-Indianapolis main line westward to photograph the soon-to-be-removed upper-quadrant semaphores. Note the tri-light "Darth Vader" signals already in place at some locations.
The first shot is of the overpass at Connersville, Indiana, where the B&O; crosses over the Whitewater Valley Railroad.
After that, we see various sets of semaphores as we head west.
0:06-0:36 - Glenwood, Indiana
0:37-1:04 - Mauzy, Indiana
1:05-1:21 - Rushville, Indiana, which was once served by FIVE railroads. A Nickel Plate branch and Big Four branch paralleled each other from the north. The Big Four crossed the B&O; and headed south to North Vernon, while the NKP merged up with the B&O.; The Big Four was abandoned in 1973, while the NKP was severed north of Sexton in 1989. The NKP is now a short line called the Honey Creek Railroad and runs from the B&O; interchange north to the grain elevator in Sexton. An ex-Conrail SW-7 sits in the grass. A PRR branch left the St. Louis main line at Camblestown, and came into Rushville from the northeast and merged up with the B&O.; It too, is long gone. In addition to the B&O;, an interurban once paralleled it from Connersville to Indianapolis.
1:22-1:36 - Arlington, Indiana
1:37-1:46 - Gwynneville, Indiana. Note the interurban substation across the tracks.
1:47-1:49 - Morristown, Indiana, where a wig-wag signal was located until 1996.
1:50-2:13 - Fountaintown, Indiana where a semaphore sits adjacent to a B&O; CPL.
Still photos of this tour can be found here:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/mr77100/sets/72157628702545093/
All of these semaphores were replaced within a year of our visit.

Some of the last remaining active railroad semaphore signals in North America are located on the BNSF Glorieta Sub which is part of the former ATSF Raton Pass line. Due to a lack of freight traffic BNSF refuses to make any capitol investments on the line which has resulted in its becoming somewhat of a living museum.
Here we see a total of nine US&S; model T-2 semaphore signals located at the ends of passing sidings. The line is run under ABS rules with manual traffic control, not CTC so the siding signals automatically clear after our train passes. The first example is at the east end of the Chapelle siding, the second raises all the way to a Clear indication.
Video taken from the rear of eastbound Amtrak Train #4, the Southwest Chief.

Public domain film from the Library of Congress Prelinger Archive, slightly cropped to remove uneven edges, with the aspect ratio corrected, and mild video noise reduction applied.
The soundtrack was also processed with volume normalization, noise reduction, clipping reduction, and/or equalization (the resulting sound, though not perfect, is far less noisy than the original).
Telegraph (from Greek: tele τηλε "far", and graphein γραφειν "writing") is the long-distance transmission of messages without the physical exchange of an object bearing the message. Thus semaphore is a method of telegraphy whereas pigeon post is not.
...In the 19th century, the harnessing of electricity brought about the means to transmit signals via electrical telegraph. The advent of radio in the early 1900s brought about radiotelegraphy and other forms of wireless telegraphy. In the Internet age, telegraphic means developed greatly in sophistication and ease of use, with natural language interfaces that hide the underlying code, allowing such technologies as electronic mail and instant
Telegraphs as such have existed in Europe from as early as 1792, then in form of a semaphore line, or optical telegraph, that sent messages to a distant observer through line-of-sight signals. In 1837, American artist-turned inventor Samuel F. B. Morse conducted the first successful experiment with an electrical recording
n 1851, the New York and Mississippi Valley Printing Telegraph Company was organized in Rochester, New York by Hiram Sibley and others, with the goal of creating one great telegraph system with unified and efficient operations. Meanwhile, Ezra Cornell had bought back one of his bankrupt companies and renamed it the New York & Western Union Telegraph Company. Originally fierce competitors, by 1855 both groups were finally convinced that consolidation was their only alternative for progress. The merged company was named The Western Union Telegraph Company at Cornell's insistence, and Western Union was born.
Western Union bought out smaller companies rapidly, and by 1860 its lines reached from the East Coast to the Mississippi River, and from the Great Lakes to the Ohio River. In 1861 it opened the first transcontinental telegraph. In 1865 it formed the Russian American Telegraph in an attempt to link America to Europe, via Alaska, into Siberia, to Moscow. (This project was abandoned in 1867.) The company enjoyed phenomenal growth during the next few years. Its capitalization rose from $385,700 in 1858 to $41 million in 1876. However it was top-heavy with stock issues, and faced growing competition from several firms, especially the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph Company--itself taken over by financier Jay Gould in 1875. In 1881 Gould took control of Western Union.
It introduced the first stock ticker in 1866, and a standardized time service in 1870. The next year, 1871, the company introduced its money transfer service, based on its extensive telegraph network. In 1879, Western Union left the telephone business, having lost a patent lawsuit with Bell Telephone Company. As the telephone replaced the telegraph, money transfer would become its primary business.
When the Dow Jones Transportation Average stock market index for the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) was created in 1884, Western Union was one of the original eleven all-American companies tracked.
By 1900 Western Union operated a million miles of telegraph lines and two international cables.
20th century
The company continued to grow, acquiring more than 500 smaller competitors. Its monopoly power was almost complete in 1943 when it bought Postal Telegraph, Inc., its chief rival.
In 1914 Western Union offered the first charge card for consumers; in 1923 it introduced teletypewriters to join its branches. Singing telegrams followed in 1933, intercity fax in 1935, and commercial intercity microwave communications in 1943. In 1958, it began offering Telex service to customers in New York City. Western Union introduced the 'Candygram' in the 1960s, a box of chocolates accompanying a telegram featured in a commercial with the rotund Don Wilson. In 1964, Western Union initiated a transcontinental microwave system to replace land
Western Union became the first American telecommunications corporation to maintain its own fleet of geosynchronous communication satellites, starting in

Here's a transcription of the video:
Hi Everyone. Kym Dowling here from Dowling Homes and I'm very pleased to show you the almost finished product of our project here at Esplanade. I hope you've been able to look at the previous videos of this project because, what a transformation this has turned out to be. We started off with a symmetrical villa that had a very tired lean to section at the back that we completely pulled away, and a hundred and sixty sq m addition, and look at the size of this - the beautiful high ceilings, lots of glass, it's just turned out to be a cracker of a job, and we at Dowling Homes have designed this for the owners. We design and build. We're very proud of this final product.
I'll just show you the extent of this build - I'm going to walk back to what was the original rear wall of the house, and here we are, all the way back here.
So we'll give you a rundown room by room of this spectacular build at Semaphore.
Over this side we have the theatre room, and this has been designed with Soundstop gyprock and extra dense insulation to soundproof the room, and this is the dining area, nice and generous. You can see the length of this table, and it almost looks lost in this area.
Across this side, we've got six metres of 2 pack and vinyl wrap kitchen cabinets with stone benchtops, and I think that would be the envy of most chefs in Adelaide. This is just a beautiful kitchen and absolutely enormous. We've got two ovens, a coffee maker and steamer, fully appointed, so this is absolutely beautiful.
Over this side is the living area. Some additional features are the below floor power points, and there we are - you can actually plug your appliances into that and then close the lid back down, and that allows the cables to stick out without any trip areas. So, nice little touch.
We'll now just go down to the remaining part of the build area.
This is the newly fitted laundry with stone benchtops and 2 pack cupboards, and this flows through into the brand new bathroom. Some nice little touches in this area - walk in shower so there's no sill on the floor, so no tripping points, a nice stone bath and just clean simple white tones, it looks really good.
We'll now go to the other side of the property. As we walk through, just take a look at the aluminium doors that appear on all the internal doors here. Natural anodised aluminium with frosted glass. That is really nice. It just introduces that apartment, commercial look to the property.
Over the other side of this really wide lobby, we have the door that leads into the master suite, and in turn, walking through this open area into a combined dressing room and ensuite. And this ensuite has turned out really nice and have a look at these beautiful dressing room cupboards with pull down hanging space which is a nice little touch, it just maximises the storage up top, and on this side we have a really generous walk in shower as well.
So that is the extent of the areas in the build section and I'll just go out now and show you the outside look.
And this is my favourite bit, the al fresco area. I just love al fresco areas, and this is a real cracker. Four metres wide, fourteen metres long and have a look at this stacker door system. This is absolutely beautiful, and this opens up the whole four and a half metres of uninterrupted in to out socialising. I love it, it's really good.
So this is our project here at Esplanade. We're really hoping to get one final video walk through once it's all finished and cleaned up. In the meantime, if this is something you're looking at doing on your property, feel free to give us a ring at Dowling Homes, or jump on the website www.dowlinghomes.com.au and please, make an enquiry and we can make it happen for you. We can design it. We can build it.

Santa Fe's old main line across Kansas, Colorado and New Mexico in 1995-96. There were still a number of through freights running as well as Amtrak's Southwest Chief and the York Canyon coal trains. At the time, semaphores were extant from La Junta-Trinidad and Raton to just north of Albuquerque. There were also a number of crossings with pedestal mounted wig-wag signals. At the south end of Wagon Mound siding, a wig-wag and semaphore stood side by side. Also shown is a brief side trip on the La Junta-Pueblo line, and an SP train which I assume was a detour move as it picked up a Santa Fe leader to work east of La Junta in ATS territory.

The Highland Main Line has changed little over the years and is still controlled by semaphore signals.
However the motive power on the line has changed and today the high-tec class 158s provide traction.
