Any interest in ACL & SAL right of way sign models?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : ACL and SAL Railroads Historical Society : One Thread

For the ACL and SAL modelers out there: Is there any interest in models of ACL & SAL lineside signs? The proposed models would likely consist of styrene parts with decals. Typical signs would include crossbucks, no tresspassing signs, whistle posts, (station/crossing/drawbridge) one mile signs, yard limit, speed restriction signs, etc.

Just guaging interest at this point. Imagine if the BOD decides to pursue the first offering would be in HO and N.

Yes, but what scales?

Buddy, I would like to see the ACL-SAL signs for my layout. I am sure the many of us who model both the ACL-SAL would purchase them, as soon as they were on the market. Allen Wiener,Ocala, FL (a city that both ACL and SAL served)

Very good idea. I live in the Knoxville, Tn area and am in the process of setting up a fairly good sized ACL model railroad that has its theme centered around the W & W Subd. The time period that I love for modeling is the late 60's because you can get the benefit of ACL signage, buildings, etc. with a touch of the still new SCL. Eastern NC locations such as the W & W, and then further north at places like Parmele were the true representations of rural eastern NC railroading.

This is a good idea,Larry Goolsby was talking to me about it at the Timonium show a couple of weeks ago. Scratch building takes time,building a kit takes less, leaving more time to enjoy the hobby. mike hart ( hart of the south )
