How can I learn where to place my signals?
Deciding where to place signals on a model railway layout can be extremely confusing as there are many rules to adhere to. Because of this, the mere layman has little or no chance of getting it right the first time, and in the absence of a real-life signalman living next door, you may be wondering where you can find the information needed to create a half-decent signalled layout.
If you're modelling a real-life track plan, then it stands to reason that a lot of digging through archives is your best chance of sourcing the information you crave. However, if you're creating a generic or imagined location, don't worry because there are publications that tackle the subject head-on.
Peco's 'Show You How' range of booklets is a valuable aid for modellers just starting out. Their 'Signalling the layout' booklet will be of particular interest if you are in a signalling quandary.
