I have found a VERY old three-position Spag. induced-needle-type indicator, with Lock On / Wrong / Lock Off on the mica "flag". A stamped label on the back reads "Walters Elect'l Mfg.Co.Ltd. London.W." Do you know what "lock" this would refer to and have you any information about the manufacturer? "London W" must be a very long time ago! Thanks, Mike.

Where is the largest surviving complete single Westinghouse miniature lever frame in the UK? (Crewe North Junction must be the largest installation, with two single frames back-to-back, of 104 levers each.) Many Thanks, Mike H.
