Simpasture Junction update

As I've now managed to work out a more accurate track plan for Simpasture Junction I've revisited it and updated the signalling to be a little more prototypical. Although I've still some track alignment and (quite a bit of) landscaping to do, this section is now starting to look reasonably representative.

Here's the view looking north towards Simpasture Junction Box:





The junction proper. The leftmost lines form the Simpasture (Shildon-Newport) Branch, while the two rightmost lines are the (still in use) Bishop Auckland-Darlington line:



Looking south from the junction:



A DMU from Darlington heads for Shildon and Bishop Auckland:





A freight from Newport leaves the Simpasture Branch and joins the combined down line:
