This handbook gives guidelines on where to place semaphore signals on models of British railways. It covers the 1960s, a period popular amongst modellers, as steam engines were still found across much of the national network at that time. The book first discusses track classification and basic types of signals. Then simple layouts are looked at, followed by study of more complicated track diagrams. A lengthy dissertation is included on subsidiary signals - small semaphore arms with a red/white/red colour scheme running horizontally – which involves discussing less familiar types of railway operation. Placing Semaphore Signals on Model Railways will be an important addition to any railway modeller’s bookshelf. More than that, those who wish to enquire about British signalling in general will find this work an excellent introduction. Read more
