BLMA
has expanded
its line of HO scale
signals. The newest
items include a United
Switch & Signal Co.
type H-2 signal head
fitted with three LEDs
(red, yellow, green). The H-2 head is available as a dwarf sig-
nal as well as single and dual head searchlight block signals
mounted on a mast. Although based on ATSF prototypes, the
signals are somewhat universal in appearance and are simi-
lar to types used throughout North America. Construction of
the pre-painted signals is a combination of brass and plastic.
Availability is expected later this summer. Check the above
website for pricing and additional details.
