 Well, I'm not really building them for a particular prototype because they're not available, I'm building them from a mostly freelanced design (although they're based on the Type G signals and the ones used on the CSX former B&A line) because any other signals are way out of my price range... I don't have to base it on anything, because the line I'm modeling is an independent shortline that's building them itself (as opposed to inheriting them from whoever the line's former owner was) so they don't have to follow the tendencies of a parent company. Basically, I'm building a generic three-lamp signal that looks like a Type G...  *hides in corner* All I'm looking for is whether the FRA set a standard for signal/mast height or if it's up to the railroad. The setting is a modern shortline with limited resources... Most signals will be single head, although there are 5 signals with two heads so they can display diverging aspects.I've decided that I'm going to worry about how I'll control all these signals later...[:-^]
