For the signal purest, remove the center amber light from the top head. This doesn't exist in reality.
One way to do it:
Go to USA1 directory and open the sigcfg file in a Unitext editor. Make a copy of the original to a safe place if you need to restore it.
Remove this code or rem it out:
SignalLight ( 3 "Amber Light"
Position ( -0.004 1.682 0 )
Radius ( 0.10 )
)
and save the file.
The next time you run the NEC route, the signals will show the correct top head configuration. If you're not comfortable doing this, send me an email and I'll send you a copy of mine which does work.

RE: Correction for the NEC Colorlight Signal

Hey,Signalmaster.I was a signalman on the NYS&W for about 3 years.No block signals though,just crossings and a bridge interlocking signal at the Arthur Kill lift bridge on the old Staten Island Railroad.

RE: Correction for the NEC Colorlight Signal

So, do you remove this:SignalLight ( 3 "Amber Light"
Position ( -0.004 1.682 0 )
Radius ( 0.10 )
OR:Just the first line.ThxSoRwy471

RE: Correction for the NEC Colorlight Signal

You can REMOVE the entire section:SignalLight ( 3 "Amber Light"
Position ( -0.004 1.682 0 )
Radius ( 0.10 )
) OR, there's also a neat "comment" command that you can use to remove things:comment ( SignalLight ( 3 "Amber Light"
Position ( -0.004 1.682 0 )
Radius ( 0.10 )
) )Notice that I put a "comment (" before the start of the block, and a close paren ")" at the end. Everything inside the
comment() will be ignored.Lee
