New Crossing Signals...again

[ebnertra000]

My computer was out being worked on for a bit, but work has since resumed. Recently finished are WRRS Model 6s, the only competitor for Griswold's famous rotating-banner signal that I've ever heard of.

This also shows of some signs with reflectorized letters (I need to make the buttons show up better on white text), and a Mini-bell.

For comparison, here is a Griswold.


Also, wooden gates are here.

They will have options for red and black stripes. The black-stripe gates will have reflectors in the middle of the stripes. I also went with fixed gate lights, as opposed to the hanging lights because that is way too annoying to try and make work. Here is how they look from the side.

I finally got the motivation to finish this set up. It should be uploaded pretty soon. The only thing I decided to cut is disappearing-banner wigwags, because I had enough trouble with the wigwags that are in the set. Maybe I'll do them later. As for new stuff, we'll start with a US&S Style DW. You can see a teardrop bell up there, too.



I also finished a mast-mount version of the Model 6 that WRRS offered. The stop sign has some reflectors now, too. Also of note is the giant bilingual crossbuck, that we have to deal with because Québec.



The flashers are GRS type XDs, which had the option to come with 5⅜" backlights, as seen here.



There is also a new gate mechanism. It's based of the Type B, apparently made by both GRS and WRRS. It will come with both modern and wooden gates. You can also see a very worn-out texture on the gate, that will be included as an optional extra. There are also some WRRS flashers that are in this set, which you can see here.



As said before, these should be up very shortly.

Glad to see you are back at it once again and great work as usual. I myself took a little bit of a break and finally getting back at it again.

I'm glad to see you back at it with these. You also hit a good set with the 1970's and early 80's style ones. Which is good, because I use those specifically for my own routes.

I have started work on signs for passive crossings. They'll be pretty modular like the active crossing sets. There are probably 18 styles of US crossbucks in various states of repair available, along with three Canadian styles, on about as many post types. They are suitable for routes from about 1950 or so to the modern day.




As can be seen, the variety allows you to get pretty weird with it.



Also included are parts for private crossings.



Also included in this set will be ID plates from as many railroads as I can get my hands on. A couple can be seen in the images above.

I am taking submissions for things in this set, particularly things like ID plates and private crossing signs, along with any other oddities that may be of use.

Definitely need various cross bucks. I don't think a single crossing on the MEC Mountain Sub had the same crossbuck. Haha
