What are semaphore signals? A simple introduction 

Ever wondered what an upper / lower quadrant signal is? Are you new to the hobby? Or do you just want to know a little more about semaphore signals?
This could be the video for you. In this first video I look at what a semaphore signal is and the basics of how they work. As the series progresses we will go on a journey looking at safety features and how we can apply signalling principals to our own layouts.
Please do not trespass onto the railway to conduct research - it is dangerous and a criminal offence to trespass on the railway.
There is a wealth of information available in books, on the internet or have a trip to a museum or heritage railway and speak to the volunteers who may be able to help.
Thank you to Andy at Wizard models for letting me use some of his pictures.
