All Southern stations had target signs and many of them kept these even when totems had been introduced either as a mixture of both or just targets.

The current auction world record holder sold in our February 2006 auction for £3750

Over the period of their use targets were produced with a variety of different sizes and layouts. Words such as 'Halt' were put on the green round section under the name.

We have researched as far as possible whether stations had targets or not. There is no evidence so far that some stations did or did not have targets - click here to view list.

On this site we have compiled a rarity guide. Every station thought to have carried a SR Target has been given a grade based on how easy they are to obtain:
