He oversaw the installation of colour light signalling at York Road station, Belfast which was commissioned in 1926.  This was the first of its kind in Ireland and among the earliest large installations in the United Kingdom.

Wallace devised an innovative method of constructing reinforced concrete bridges using T-section pre-cast concrete beams carried on reinforced concrete piers.  Four beams created the bridge deck on to which ballasted track could be directly laid.

In September 1930 he left the NCC to become Chief Stores Superintendent (Euston) on the LMS. In 1934 he became Chief Civil Engineer. Wallace was an advocate of British Standard track and flat-bottom rails and among the works he carried out were extensive trials of flat-bottom track with two types of baseplate on the former Midland and Caledonian mainlines. He also initiated an assessment of continuously welded rail (CWR). In 1946 he designed the Adam Viaduct, the first prestressed concrete railway bridge in the United Kingdom. In 1948 he left the railway service.

Wallace was known for having a dry sense of humour and was popular with his colleagues.

He was appointed President of the Institution of Civil Engineers for 1955–56, after being on its council and committees for 11 years. In 1949 he chaired the first meeting of its associated society, the British Geotechnical Society, and he received an honorary doctorate of science from Queen's University, Belfast in 1956.

William Kelly Wallace died in Surrey in May 1969.
