My personal preference is a fictious rail line but because of my partial lack of imagination i always pick holes in the plausability of my own road! Thats why when i create my fictious railroad i have think through logical reasons for the why's, how's, when's, etc of its equipment, route, and other things that make it what it is. If i dont do that then i just dont feel like my road is realistic enough and that bothers me! A bit of a shortfall on my part some of the times when i dont feel like being super realistic!! <br /> <br />Anyhow, as for your second question not every turnout needs to have signals associated with them. I'm no expert but the way i see it is signals in general usually control the main lines and tracks that join or cross the main lines. Other signals such as dwarf signals are often found along secondary tracks at major junctions, yards, terminals and the like. A quiet branch line however would probably have few, if any, signals at all. For better info there is bound to be someone on this forum that has a much better idea of what their talking about though!! hehe
