Capital "W" with 2 white lamps, used inside stations
at night lightened by a lamp over the signal

Instead of the "Left-to-way" version, the files contain the same signal as small version ("dwarf"), also placed right to way

by Sebastian Krah, DE

Capital "W", used inside stations
at night lightened by a lamp over the signal
neither lamps nor mechanics: Pictures for "Clear" and "Danger" look the same

Instead of the "Left-to-way" version, the files contain the same signal without light, also placed right to way

Capital "W" with 2 white lamps, used inside stations

Instead of the "Left-to-way" version, the files contain the same signal in white color without lamps, also placed right to way (DR Ra11b)

Here, both versions are not lightened at night

Mechanical signal, used in stations (backside: two white lights)

Instead of a "Left-to-way" version, the files contain the same signal as small signal, also standing right to way

Semaphore signal with 2 arms by German original

to leave side tracks of stations using restricted speed

Entry to vacant station
with white light as "Clear"

Instead of the "Left-to-way" version, the files contain the same signal without lamp, also placed right to way

Entry into station with spring-loaded switches
So18 = 2 white lights = turnout can be passed ("Clear")
So18b = 1 white light = switch blades are not completely closed ("Danger")

There is included the version "Right of way" only

Switching: At the signal, let turn on a signal system for the reverse direction. Make the signal depending on this signal system and give the signal a time to switch back. This is the time needed to change back the blades by the spring.
