longie Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 I would like to model a signal similar to the bracket home shown in the picture. Does anyone know where I might information or drawings of this signal please. Many thanks. Graham Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpgibbons Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 A Pictorial Record of Southern Railway Signals by G A Pryer has numerous drawings covering the various standard signal components used by the SR/BR(S), so you would not have much trouble producing your own drawing. It looks like a standard bracket on a rail post with a calling-on arm underneath. Numerous suppliers such as Wizard Models (MSE) provide most of the components you'd need.

RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted November 9, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 9, 2021 The lowest arm with the ring on it is not a Calling On arm but read to a goods line or siding in accordance with standard SR practice. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RailWest Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 (edited) 26 minutes ago, The Stationmaster said: The lowest arm with the ring on it is not a Calling On arm but read to a goods line or siding in accordance with standard SR practice. Indeed, the ringed arm read into the goods yard on the right. The current Swanage Railway have a different version of that signal (seen here in 2009) and here the ringed arm reads into the run-round loop on the left.

longie Posted November 7, 2022 Author Share Posted November 7, 2022 At long last I have nearly finished my signal. It has has taken a while but I am really pleased with the results. Just hand rails and ladder to do to finish! 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RailWest Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 (edited) Looks,nice, but two points:- 1. That style of subsidiary arm is essentially a WHITE arm with narrow red stripes along the edges, not a red arm with a narrow white stripe. 2. Don't forget the associated indicator box :-) Edited November 7, 2022 by RailWest 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
