I live in england and I have started collecting traffic lights.
I currently have a Siemens traffic light and a Siemens LED retrofit for Peek traffic lights.
I am trying to make a guide to what traffic lights there are in england.

WelcomBe! 
Nice website. I too have a Plessey awaiting its turn in my signal queue (that's British for 'line' - see, I speak your language
). But thanks to your website I apparently now have to get an SGE signal too. 
I just love the way that looks - red/green round signal sections sitting on top of the striped pole. That's just dead sexy. 
Like the rest of the site as well. Hope you find the forum here to your liking.

Hello - nice website! I own an old Plessey, too! :)
A cop pulled me over and said, "Papers..." So I replied, "Scissors! I win!" and drove off.

Welcome! Very detailed site! I think I like the Microsense signals the most. I recently traded my 8-inch McCain with fellow signalfan David in Germany for his Siemens, so it was cool to see more of them.
Glad to have you here.
Peace!

Hi Ben,
Welcome to the site! I emailed you a few weeks back, nice to see you on here!
That 'over polished' signal on your page doesn't look too British, that's for sure haha.
