Removed a/c Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 (edited) White line added down the street in front of the Elmo Motel. Think there is also a square yellow sign to accompany the white line. Edited November 13, 2013 by thebritfarmer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bingo!!,you win the coconut,it's a yellow stop sign (think they were used till the late fifties,before they went red) Cats name, galore,(think 60's james bond) Ray Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

highpeak Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Bingo!!,you win the coconut,it's a yellow stop sign (think they were used till the late fifties,before they went red) Cats name, galore,(think 60's james bond) Ray The 1954 supplement to the 1948 Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices specified a change to white letters on a red background. A red background/white letters was the initial proposal but was changed to yellow in 1924 because yellow was more visible at night. The sign was octagonal, the shape being an additional recognition factor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
long island jack Posted November 14, 2013 Author Share Posted November 14, 2013 Highpeak, This is the sign i used,the layout is based in mid/late 60's and thought there would still be some knocking about on the minor roads in most cities.

highpeak Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 th.jpg Highpeak, This is the sign i used,the layout is based in mid/late 60's and thought there would still be some knocking about on the minor roads in most cities. Ray Per this page, adherence to the MUTCD signs didn't actually become mandatory until 1966 http://signalfan.freeservers.com/road%20signs/stopsign.htm so the yellow sign could have lived on for some time after the 1954 change, I am sure there were other priorities for spending money on than a sign in a dingy industrial district. One interesting note in there is that the signs used to be much lower than they are these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trisonic Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Sometimes I really wished I lived back in the UK. Being able to see Ray's or Ian's layouts whenever I wished is one of them. Good luck, guys, Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Reichert Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 (edited) I think legally you need crossing bucks both sides of both tracks. Because there are private locations in between. Andy Edited May 13, 2014 by Andy Reichert Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

long island jack Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 I think legally you need crossing bucks both sides of both tracks. Because there are private locations in between. Andy Interesting,even on a lightly used street like Rust st!!! to be honest i thought they had to be on the right hand side,didn't know they had to be on both sides,is this law in all states or does it vary from state to state?? Don't want the rossers after me!!i have enough trouble with the rivet counters Ray Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
long island jack Posted May 16, 2014 Author Share Posted May 16, 2014 Andy i've searched high and low for info on cross buck at both side of road (obviously looking in the wrong places),i can find loads about stop, yeild, extra sign approaching the crossing, but now't about 2 cross buck either side of road. Can you point me in the right direction,won't have time to do alteration now,but if i think it will benifit the layout,will have it done for TVNAM Ray Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctor quinn Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Hi Ray I think Andy means a single cross-buck on each side of each track, the guy in the black car could stop at the warehouse in between. If someone else moved the car for him they wouldn't have seen the cross-buck. Nick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
long island jack Posted May 16, 2014 Author Share Posted May 16, 2014 arrrr!!! see what you mean now(i'll make sure there's no cars parked there until it's done!!!),on my to do list,cheers Nick Ray Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
