Hello from England!

This is the new member sandbox. Until you post a little something about yourself here, you don't get to play on the rest of the board. So tell us a little something about yourself and your signals.

Hello from England!

Hello, my name is Lewis, and I am a 14 year old boy.
I have been collecting traffic lights and signals and road lamps and other traffic memorabilia for about 10 years now!!
I love discussing traffic lights and learning about the different types :)

I have amoungst my collection: 3 sets of PEEK traffic signals
a set of MELLOR traffic signal
and a RAILWAY HEAD!!!
my most favorite ones are TSEU or TELENT
I have around 27 road work lamps!!!
and five diffrent road signs!!

I am interested in talking to people who share the same interest as I do in traffic related items :)

Thank you :grin:

Hey, Welcome!
Spent 2 weeks over in Wales last year, looking forward to going back. What railway head do you have? (Always interested in those, since I work on a railroad here in the US..)

You're at the right place and looks you've gotten an early start. I didn't think of traffic signals until the city hired me to maintain them (I was 26 then).

Well what do you know. If I put my name here, I do not have to sign it everytime.
