OO gauge colour light signals
Berko Signals
We stock the following OO gauge signals Berko signals. Berko signals are fully assembled.
B302 2 aspect (red and green) with shorter post for locating on platforms.
ECKB229 2 aspect signal with standard length post.
B531 3 aspect signal (red, yellow, and green) with shorter post for locating on platforms.
B504 3 aspect signal (red, yellow, and green) with standard length post.
B605 4 aspect signal (yellow, red, yellow and green) with standard length post
Eckon Signals
Eckon signals are supplied as kits. The kits are supplied with the wires attached to the LEDs and they are fairly easy to build.
ES8L 3 aspect signal (red, yellow, and green) with feather and standard length post.
ES8R 3 aspect signal (red, yellow, and green) with feather and standard length post..
We can obtain other signals in the Berko and Eckon ranges upon request.
The first serious use of 2 aspect colour light signals was in 1921 on the Liverpool Overhead Railway. 2 aspect signals are now used only on lines running trains at less than 50mph. The LMS and LNER used 3 & 4 aspect signals in the 1930’s.
2, 3 or 4 aspect signals can be used with our MAS-Sequencer, IRDASC4 and IRDASC5. 2 aspect signals can be controlled by IRDASC-1, IRDASC-2*, IRDASC-3*, SA1-S*, SA2-S*, SA4-S*, SA5-S*,SA7-SB*, SA8-S*, SA8-SB*, SA9-S*, and Simple Station Stop.
* Indicates control units with an output capable of switching both a distant and home signal. The distant signal warns the driver of the home signal ahead. They work in conjunction so that the distant signal sets to yellow when the home is red, and both set to green when the line ahead is clear.
The point Indicator can be used to operate one or two 2 aspect signals at the approach to a point. One signal will set to red and the other to green according to the points position.
