    HI All,

    Would anyone happen to have a photo showing either a "take siding indicator" or a "leave siding indicator" on the Frisco.

    The rulebook indicates this would have been a white (or lunar, I suppose) signal light with a letter S on the lens. When
    illuminated, the dispatcher is giving permission for the train to take or leave a siding (which depends on placement of the
    indicator) with a hand operated switch.

    The rulebook also indicates a leave siding indicator might be tied into the signal system in conjunction with a hand
    operated electrically locked switch, but I know I've seen these used in conjunction with spring switches as well (For an
    example see: http://www.frisco.org/shipit/index.php?threads/fontana-c54-2.1799/ )

    Thanks,

    Paul
