Looking for steam era signals/speed signs

Hi all,

I've been working on a fictional steam era US route, set roughly in the 1940s, but I'm struggling to find appropriate signals and speed signs and looking for some input.

As for the signals, I considered using either searchlight signals (from the RCAP package) or Great Northerner's semaphore signals (or possibly both?).

But I'm at a total loss concerning the speed signs.

I'd appreciate If anyone could give me some advice. Thanks.

I believe there are some wig wags in the library. Not 100% sure though.

There will be a dynamite new set of semaphore signals that come out with the new RWA route. These are so real they are scary.

Hm, I seem to have some issues selecting the wig wags after placing them, unless I draw a select circle. Is there a way to select them by clicking on them?

Never used them, try asking mdurdan he made them. He is here a lot so you can PM him if he does not see this thread.
