    2 ground signals fitted on the MPD exit, they are point controlled.


    (I have added another resistor now as I thought they were a little too bright!)

    Didn't take long to get your head around your new DCC controller Ron! I also found it easier to link colour light signals to point positions, using Seep PM1's with the secondary set of switching contacts make doing that a 'doddle'!

    Today (apart from undercoating skirting boards ready for the decorator tomorrow!) I have been mostly dealing with signals (coloured light type).
    Whilst reading up on signalling on BR I noticed a signal on the layout that was wrong.
    [​IMG]

    The signal on the left should only be a ground signal, so I changed it.

    [​IMG]

    This gave me a spare Home signal which I added as a Holt platform starter!

    [​IMG]

    I also added a ground signal for the station headshunt.

    [​IMG]

    All working fine, I added a Macro which turned all the signals to Red, very handy!;)

    Cheers
    Ron

    Good to read that you have been doing your homework on the 'Operations of Signal on the BR Network'... :avatar:
