Point control, weighbridge hut and grain wagon

I haven't had much time for modelling this weekend but something I've been thinking about since I started this is how to control the points. I eventually want to use a lever frame so need something to throw the switch blades. This is what I've come up with


It needs a few tweeks but it seems strong enough.

During the week at work Ive had a play around with some card and brick papers (Scalescenes) to try and make a small weighbridge hut for the coal yard.
Its still needs a bit more doing to it but its almost there.
I want some grain wagons and had a couple of old triang ones from years ago so thought I would see if anything can be made of them. Ive removed some moulding from the bodysides where the sign used to go and also removed the underframe clutter. I will add a bottom to the hopper later. Ive also removed the moulded buffers and will replace them with cast metal ones.
