I was wondering where there are single head Searchlight signals.
I think Donner Pass could use some. S.P. certainly didn't use two head signals all over the place and DTG didn't supply single head signals with the route.

SMM?..........RCAP?

Sherman Hill has Single Searchlight Signals

SMM for sure.

SMM, where are those from? They're the wrong type anyways.

This is making a problem for me, since I said I'd keep the assets limited to Cajon and Donner Pass.

Well if you can't use free stuff then I think you are stuck. What do you mean they are the wrong type? These are the USS searchlight signals. What are you looking for?

US&S Made a number of different types of Searchlights.

I know that.

For what it's worth, I believe SP used GRS SA series Searchlights.

The general layout is good on those signals you posted up Buzz and I'm not a rivet counter (usually) but they have the black masts and S.P. had all silver masts. The black masts really stick out.
I hate to install the RCAP just for the signals.
Also, a lot of people don't want to install a package that requires a bunch of other downloads to make work, even when the downloads are free. I understand where they are coming from on that. (especially when some things suddenly disappear from their websites and/or links change)
What I need are Marc's signals for Tehachapi...


I found out there is one single head signal in the Donner assets that might work, but It's just a head and short post for use on a signal bridge. If I use that, I'll have to dig up one of the signal masts with no light on it. I have those in stock.
That two piece arrangement would limit how many I want to do though.

I can't for the life of me, understand why Donner didn't come with any single head post style for use on the mainline between switch points.

This is one of those times when I wish I knew how to make these kinds of things, so I could include the textures with my update package.

You're right Erik. I was just trying to limit how many blasted routes a person needs.

SP used US&S H2s signals.

FWIW.

BTW
SMM digital doesn't seem to be around anymore...
It says their domain name is up for sale.

Almost all of SMM models are in RCAP.

SMM >> JRC >> VRC

enjoy.
