I expect the telegraph you refer to is for the mooring station orders.

Trying to remember the orders on the mooring telegraphs....

Come on deck
throw line
haul in
slack away
let go

maybe somene can add to that/correct me -  think i'm missing something!!

Make fast is on there for sure and I think there's a command for when finished and able to leave station.

Nice looking model. Perhaps we can arrange a 'Southern' Paddler day next year - seems to be quite a few paddle steamer modellers in the West Country.

A southern Paddler Day is a great idea. Time is too short for that long drive north. But I am tempted. The engineer I was referring to was very pedantic, he fell out with a mate of his who built a card model of the Bristol Queen. He though the shape of the paddle box was wrong. Never spoke to him again. So with much trepidation I took my model to show him, after an half an hour he grunted and said the whistle is to small. I was very happy.R.G.Y.
