Description
PLEASE NOTE THESE SIGNALS ARE NOT SUITABLE FOR DCC LAYOUTS.
The signal is operated by sensors when a locomotive passes over them. From green it turns to red and 3 seconds later turns to yellow. After a further 3 seconds it returns to green. To power these signals from a Kato controller you require an Automatic Signal power supply 24-844 up to 3 signals can be powered through this. This will then plug into an adapter 24-829 which in turn clips to the side of the controller.
This version has the signal on the left hand side of the track, as per Japanese & UK practise.

The Kato automatic signals are brilliantly simple. As long as you have a long enough circuit the colour light will be green, then turn red when a train passes. It then goes amber after a few seconds, then back to green. It reflects automatic signalling used on British main lines and in many other places around the world

Superb piece of equipment and I fully endorse the previous review

Endorsing the previous reviews, these are brilliantly simple to use no switches or relays to wire up, just add them to your layout using the 1/2 length straight track it is attached to, connect to the BLUE box (see my review on this item) and that is it!
