Started Installing Signals On my Layout

Unread post by Justin »

I have just started to install signals on my layout. I am working on a couple as I type this. I have made a few revisions to my signal system. Before I was going to make the interlocking manual and the intermediate automatic having my controls like a CTC board, but closer look and I found that doing that will probably take up more time from actually running trains and clutter up my control panel with wires. So what I am planning on is making both intermediates and interlocking automatic running off of block occupancy detectors and I think I will make them approach light. They will still operate like those of the CTC system and I am still going to interlock the turnout relays to the interlocking signals. I will post more updates and pics on my site once I get a few working. I still need to build up more circuits as well as more signals. I think I might throw in a video so you can see how they work as well. Check back for updates. :)
