Signal Demise/position lights/Searchlight signal

[NW Mailing List]

I will be making more updates to the PL web site today...I have added 1967
N&W signal indications. I will also have US&S catalogs with dimensions of
signals up later this weekend. Some photos have also been posted, but more
are on the way...
