Outside of one colour light signal at the exit of Watchit, the D&S has now got into the swing of things ( only a baby swing so far).

On the exit tracks from Centre peninsula in which Durston, underneath & Charde on top now has signals to indicate the status of the point feeding both locations. Temporary until I get into some relay interconnections to allow the mainline point also to reflect how it is set. If the mainline is not set to either Charde or Durston, both signals will be red.

Berko signals




The perspex to the side of the left hand signal is to protect it from elbows, etc.



They are normally connected to 12v DC  ( dropping resistor included with the signal) but in my case, 10V - still bright enough to see.

Nifty, Sol.  :thumbs

It looks good Ron.

One day I'll use a similiar technique. Can you send me some details.
 

They seem good models Sol.

Do they come "ready to plant" or are they kits ?

Those are "RTP" -  Berko. The same in kit form are Eckon

Thanks Sol - and not at all expensive judging from that link.

When you compare them to Ratio kits, they're highly competitive - and they work !!! :thumbs

I'm not too sure how many were around in steam days ……………….:roll::roll::roll:

Well you live and learn. :thumbs

It always pays to look through history because the actual dates are often long before one thought.  I'd imagined coloured lights came in with the diesels - maybe because the line near us in my youth was only semaphore.
