wiring diagram for a Pastime Hobby dual track signal bridge ho-202
Posted by Billybob57 on Monday, January 29, 2024 10:21 AM

Was wondering if anyone could provide assistance on to how to wire the dual track signal bridge in oider to make the lights function.  The bridge was given to me as a gift many years ago, which I assembled and soldered the wirs to the lights, just prior to having to dismantle the layout.  I have recently started rebuilding the layout and would like to make the lights functional, however I cannot seem to find a wring schematic on how to connect the light leads to a power source.  I do have the resistors that came with the kit.  Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.  Oh by the way, I did find that the the bridge kit has been disconnected and the link to Pastime Hobbies does not work.

How do you want the bridge lights to function?  I have an Oregon Raiil Supply signal bridge with lights which I wired as turnout position indicators.  I don't use blocks or other train control, so that works well for me.

Others actually wire the lights to their block control.  That's fine, too. It's your railroad, so whatt do you want?

It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.
