iclose Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 I would like some advice on how to signal my layout. It is a double track mainline with a 3 platform station, a single track branch line and a locomotive stabling point. the branchline platform is bidirectional. the main line goes in to a tunnel on the left and there is a bridge to the right hand side over the main line and the branch line. The period I am modelling is the mid to late 2000's and the signals are all coloured lights Digram below. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzie Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 I think that the track layout would have been rationalised a bit by that date to eliminate the diamond and to remove the need for a shunt signal (crossover to branch and then point in to yard from branch). I would be inclined to put platform starters at the left end of the top and bottom faces, right hand end of top and middle faces, and a yellow shunt ground signal before the yard exit point. Extra starter or just stop signal/board will be required on the left of the middle platform if trains are to be reversed in the middle platform. All the other signals will be off scene, but from the left will be a signal with position 1 feather, and from the right main line will be a signal with and off indication and if the middle platform is for reversing a position 4 feather.
