PRR Signals on my Layout (I want them)

[ndbprr]

The problem with all commercially made PRR position light signals is that they are way oversized in all scales.  You might want to look at a couple of articles by Jack Consoli in the Keystone Modeler from earlier this year that are scale and not that hard to do.  the Keystone Modeler can be had at the PRRT&HS web site and you can sign up to receive it each month for free.  As good or better than any publication you pay for that is available. And for those who say they don't model the PRR the railroad in its hayday was 10% of rolling stock and mileage in the country.  That means one in ten cars should be PRR and there are some great ones that have been covered.

Take a look at Tomar Industries they do a good job with signals.

What do you want them to do?  Just be there?  Indicate something? 

Both NJ International and Oregon Rail Supply make operating PRR postion light signals.   If you're feeling frisky you could scratchbuild them from either Oregon Rail or IHC signal heads.

I just want to buy them lol, dont want to build them, but I want them to operate as actual signals. Mike

You probably will run a Digitrax SE8C board off your loconet.

Be warned... there is MUCH study involved. It isnt simple.

At least your PRR signal aspects are rather simple compared to my B&O!
