Module00 Posted June 16, 2014 Author Share Posted June 16, 2014 (edited) Thank you very much for these explanations. I would like to install semaphores. The PECO model is good for scotland ? Edited June 16, 2014 by Module00 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus 37 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Hi Module Yes the Peco lattice post signals are good for Scotland. They are probably the closest representation there is. The only other thing is to ask Kevpeo from Loch Dour which signals he uses. Cheers Marcus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Module00 Posted June 16, 2014 Author Share Posted June 16, 2014 Ok, thank you... Yes i have posed question to Kevpeo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Module00 Posted June 22, 2014 Author Share Posted June 22, 2014 What do you think about this model ? Dapol 4L-002-001 Signal - Motorised, LMS home (OOSIGN3) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus 37 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Hi Module Lovely as those Dapol semaphores are, they weren't seen on the West Highland lines. They would however, have been seen on other rural lines in Scotland though being of LMS origin. It would be nice if Dapol increases the variety of these signals eventually as they really are cracking models. Regards Marcus. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Scottish Modeller Posted June 29, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 29, 2014 It's a pity that nobody was able to answer my question of June 23rd... Hi Module00, The signal from Dapol is similar but not the same as the one in the photo. The Dapol one is a supposedly a BR standard tubular post signal.

Module00 Posted June 30, 2014 Author Share Posted June 30, 2014 Hello Scottish modeller ! Thank you for your answer ! It's possible to use this Dapol model on my layout without make un big mistake ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Scottish Modeller Posted June 30, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 30, 2014 Hi Module00, It is possible to use kits to make the correct signal. However, I have a feeling that you don't want to do things this way. The Dapol signal is probably the nearest thing available ready to use and is an operating one. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Module00 Posted June 30, 2014 Author Share Posted June 30, 2014 Yes you feel very well ! Ok, i go to use the Dapol Signal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Ian Smeeton Posted July 2, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 2, 2014 I would love to help, but I don't have the expertise to. Your photos and plan look superb, but I am not sure which lines, exactly are the running lines and which are sidings. Also which are passenger lines, requiring full signalling and which are not. But good luck with the layout and keep posting. Do not lose heart. Best Regards Ian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinklein Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 try posting the track plan and signalling query in "skills and knowledge centre", in the permanent way, signalling & infrastructure forum, you`re more likely to get a good answer there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Module00 Posted July 3, 2014 Author Share Posted July 3, 2014 (edited) Thanks to all ! V1 and V2 are running lines V3 between A11 and A13 also. All the others are siding lines. I am afraid of not understanding everything. The explanations of the experts in signalling and infrastructure risk to be difficult to understand.I am not very strong in English language. But I am going to try! Edited July 3, 2014 by Module00 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_1066 Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Could you mark on your platforms and level crossing(s)? It is difficult to visualise what runs where and why on those diagrams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus 37 Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Hi Module Sorry been working night shift the last week so haven't managed to get on here. As Jon1066 says, we need to see the platforms to determine where the signalling should go. Also it looks although you will need a few junction signals to be prototypical, as seen in the picture below. Unfortunately Dapol don't do Junction signals. You could possibly mix and match though with kits of the same type of signal. Cheers Marcus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
