Tyer Token Lock most major parts are now
available. Like all parts we only manufacture to order. We hope to
have the minor parts available soon which will allow an overhaul and service
kits to be made available.
We hope to have ground signal lamp cases available shortly. We also expect to be manufacturing a batch of commutator contacts for 1947 block Instruments. We will also have available the correct Fillister head screws. Though both of these items will be dependent on suficient interest for us to make a bulk order from our suppliers.

foundries prepared to cast that correct grade of metaland at a sensible
price.

It is a little while since this page was updated, some of our recent
manufactured items have included complete Tubular Signal Fittings kits,
also some components for Timber Post signals, along with Facing Point Locks,
along with Lock Stretcher Bars. We expect to be producing another batch of
Facing Point Locks and Lock Stretcher Bars, this will include the GWR two
hole fixing variety with the insulation within the rod rather than at the
ends. Also to be produced will be some more signal fitting kits. We are
also looking into Token Exchange Equipment. The production of some Tyers
Tokens and spares have been delayed as samples failed to make expectation.
October 2016
Following agreement with Mors Smitt, the successors to Tyers Ltd, a number
of Tyers parts will be available. First parts to be available will be the
Bronze Tyers version of the Token Keys. We already supply alluminium Keys to
the GWR specification. Patterns A to D will be available first, with the
special available if there is demand. These products will be followed by
Token Locks. Spares for token machines will also be available. Whether
complete machines will be offered depends on there being demand, as they are
not cheap to manufacture.
