Tom would like to hear from ‘O’ Gauge enthusiasts about semaphore:

“I am looking for information on any source for a complete three position, upper quadrant, mechanical only semaphore, or parts such as the semaphore arm, so I can build my own.

No lights are required for my use as I am modeling in the 1890’s through the 1920’s when electric power in remote areas was unavailable. In those days signaling was all handeled by the brakeman, or station attendant, and were operated manually by them.

I would greatly appreciate any help anyone can provide. I found one source in HO Gauge only, for semaphores similar to the ones I want at the following website. tomarindustries.com/signals, #H-853, but nothing in ‘O’ Gauge is listed. Thanks for your help. Tom.”
