Seeking O-Gauge Track Signals Compatible with Lionel Fastrack and Legacy Control

Atlas, Z-Stuff, MTH, and K&R Custom Signals all make O-Scale signals. K&R's are a bit cheaper and they look great; plus they are 3d printed here in the US. Installation of signals is easy with just a few wires and an insulated rail or Lionel or MTH IR device (I would stick with the insulated rail).

Thanks Dylan the Train Man,

The K&R look interesting given the stage I am in. I will look over all suggested alternatives before I commit, but this is a a good start.

Getting quick and accurate feedback is why I like this OGR Forum membership.

I appreciate your experience!

Eric’s Trains (YouTube) has some older but excellent videos on setting up the Atlas signal system. He uses Atlas track but it will work with FasTrack using the same principals. Highly recommend looking up and watching those videos.

Nice layout. That is a huge space. Think you will enjoy watching the trains lumber around those sweeping curves. Gives you room to build some grades and view blocks if you desire too.

Hi Ken, Several years ago I bought at auction a number of signals of perfect size for O gauge, I have used some of them on my layout but have quite a few left over. Unfortunately I am on vacation in South Carolina until the end of this week and should be back in New York state buy early next week. If you can wait that long, I can send you pictures of what I have. They have steel masts and solid bases .  They are of the target nature and semaphore type  You can contact me if interested by sending me an email from my Forum profile or wpark301@yahoo.com. Regards Bill

We sell signals made by K&R Signals and they have dwarf signal sets specifically for Fastrack - you can read all about them here

They are available on our website here

Hi Mr. Muffins Trains,

Thanks for the heads up you having K&R. When I finalize my signals plan over the next few weeks i will contact you.

Thanks GregK for the Eric's Trains tips! I will view them - i have a lot to learn.

Thanks also for the layout plan compliment. The layout is 24' x 24' - nearly half the basement. I am anxious to see trains on those curves as well, and I hope to work in some elevations once enough basics are in place.

You might take a look at the WeHonest Railway Signals, they're really attractively priced.

Just one example...

Thank you 'gunrunnerjohn'!

I do plan on looking into WeHonest Railway Signals.

Have you used them at all? If yes, what's your experience with them been like?

-Ken

I have a bunch of the WeHonest stuff, and we used some of them on our modular club modules.  They're bare bones in that you have to supply the actuating electronics, they're just the physical signal and LED indicators.  OTOH, that allows me to do anything I want with the operation.

Thanks GRJ ....
