[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by iaviksfan</i> <br /><br />Rene, <br />I would like to see more articles on signals (basic) using low cost items and just general How to things. One thing would be surveying for a bridge or something like that. Thanks - Greg <br />[/quote] <br />More deatail on what you would like to know. <br />Bearing in mind even for basic signaling most garden lines cannot fit it in. <br /> I can help a bit with principals and practices of railway signaling but each railway carries those out differently. <br />But a very basic signal can be made with a 1/2" alluminium tube an inexpencive hollow Red or yellow 1-6 mm thick triangle for the arm the plastic plug for the tube a nail from a nail clip and a bead the high tec version has a constant yellow light your whole line could be done with those.. <br />You cannot get any more basic than that or you can go to what I call half signaling which is to install as close to full signaling as you can. <br />regards John
