   DCC Enabled Electric Loco with sound hauling a passenger train along a beautiful and very detailed layout in the Club Railway Modelling, Bulgaria.







Station master's signal torch



   Station master old signal lamp - the video shows the lamp in detail. You can see how it looks like in it's original paint. It has a thing on the back for being attached to a belt. Inside is where an old 4.5 volts battery has been placed and an old-fashioned light-bulb. When closed; it can be turned on and off through a very simple mechanism. On the front, there are three mechanic switches - no LED's those days - the switches just slide three coloured plastic pieces in front of the light so to make it green, red or yellow. Quite an interesting piece of engineering!

   Quite a few cool scenes with all-American diesel engine hauling a very long container train across the Bulgarian Railway Modelling Club's layout. Passing through great scenery, into the tunnel and out; around train stations and through the fields... Quite cool!
