This illustration shows the completed colour light signal assembly including a completely revised post, ladder, and service cage. The post was designed to carry the wiring from the head down to the baseboard below. A permanently attached connector is mounted on the assembly to offer strain relief for the delicate wires and to permit removal from the layout. The implementation of a "ladder" was achieved using upside down antenna elements mounted with minifig hands and tube. The minifig hand provides a nice natural angle to the ladder. The service cage is implemented with bits of "jail" window inserts.
This illustration shows a recently completed 3-aspect colour light signal made for my next layout. It is based on standard UK multi-aspect colour light signals and is similar to my previous version (found here); however it incorporates a junction "feather" indicator. The feather indicator shows the driver of the route setting ahead when approaching a junction. Signal heads may incorporate one or more feather strips depending on the track configuration. Getting this look right in Lego was tricky--I didn't want it to look bulky and dominate the signal head. I had no choice but to use low profile surface mount LEDs. I couldn't simply mount these LEDs to wires since it would not be robust and it would be nearly impossible to solder properly. I recovered a section of an old printed circuit board which had two parallel PCB traces running next to each other for about 30 mm. I cut out this section and filed it into a narrow strip about 3mm wide. I soldered the LEDs between the traces at the 8mm stud interval spacing. This PCB was then embedded into the jumper plates which form the backing board of the feather-head. A narrow channel was cut/filed into the jumper plates and the PCB strip super-glued in place. Note that this is the only use of glue in this assembly--all of the Lego elements are stud attached! I used very fine 30 gauge wire-wrap wire to attach the LEDs in both the feather and main signal head. Only 5 wires are required to energise the head: R, G, Y, Feather, and a common return. The layout construction is progressing well and I should get around to photographing it. This layout is special because I am incorporating a great deal of electronics and automation. All the track is semi-permantantly attached to the base plates and have dedicated dropper wires soldered to "bus" wires underneath the baseboard. All the switches/turnouts are controlled by slow-action Tortoise point switch machines and of course the signals work! All of this control is based around using a digital communication bus called CANbus. CANbus is an industrial multidrop robust network bus pioneered by Bosch and now heavily used in cars, industrial automation, avionics (ARINC-825), and other applications. MERG (Model Electronic Railway Group) have adapted CANbus to model railway control into a standard they call C-Bus. I have based my control system on C-bus and it is pretty cool to control the switches and signals with a computer as well as locomotive control via DCC! Lastly, I designed the layout to flexibly switch between DCC and conventional 9V-DC operation on the two main running lines. This will allow a flexible mix of both DCC and standard 9V trains on the layout.
