Do-It-Yourself Model Railway Signal

 

Buying a ready-made model railway signal for your model railway layout is quite expensive especially if the layout is big. You need to purchase a lot of these. Some of these are very poor in detail and not accurate to the scale. Why not build your own railway signal?! It is not only cheap, you can even design how you want it to look like and you will also enjoy making it.
