This could arguably be more appropropriate for the model RR forums, <br />but since there seem to be more railroad industry folks on this forum, <br />I thought I'd get the most real-world input here (no offense to the NMRA <br />as I'm a member as well). <br /> <br />I installed a new pair of switches to create a cut-over between my main <br />and a branch line on my model railroad (eliminates two reverse moves <br />for train operations). I left the ballast looking fresh and "new" (mostly <br />because I'm lazy on this occasion and don't want to weather it), so it <br />looks like some very recent MOW work has been completed. <br /> <br />I'd like to add some trackside signage to represent the railroad's wanting <br />crews to proceed at reduced speed along the main and branch lines <br />where the construction was performed. I'm imagining this would be <br />done on a temporary basis until the signals are upgraded and the <br />operating rules for that division are amended to dictate a speed limit of <br />10 MPH when using the new crossing-over. <br /> <br />I know I've seen yellow rectangular signs along a ROW someplace in the <br />midwest and being told that was a temporary indication to all crews to <br />proceed at restricted speed. Might anyone have ideas on some <br />temporary signage for this situation?
