Context

A continuation of the unfolding saga of MT 95/668 and MT 95/669.

This file is much more productive than the previous one, containing a wealth of plans of the signalling system, as well as press cuttings from the unveiling and other material from the launch of the scheme, and most valuably, a number of press photos of the new signals in situ.
