Another new sign, a generic yard limit based on my rectangular PRR base sign. If you don't want PRR or UP yard limits, here ya go.
Had someone request this after seeing one in the background of a picture I posted on FB. So, of course I cast more. I have 5 available currently, if anyone is interested.
A few new signs...

Roughly 6"x8", same size as my "Caution" signs. As of tomorrow, they will be $25, plus shipping. They do fit nicely into a flat rate envelope, however. Somewhere on the Sale page I have a couple posts with a bunch of stuff as well, if you were curious.

Re: A few new signs...
It occurred to me that I had no idea how many sign patterns I have, so I gathered them together and did a video. Check it out!

Re: A few new signs...
Folks, if you are planning to dress up or "modernize" your layout,club layout or private, I cannot think of a better source for signage. Pete is very accommodating and the prices are more than reasonable. If you have a preferred prototype sign or style, contact him with pictures or drawings. I won't promise he'll jump on a new pattern immediately, but you should have an exchange of ideas.
Contact Odd Duck Foundry with your ideas and/or wants. It's good stuff that won't break the bank.

Re: A few new signs...
Pete is making the nameplates for my Erskine Tramway equipment. They are patterned after Sir Arthur's, and a friend in England, made the patterns.
Here are some of the production plates. The rectangular plates go on the wagon frames, the ovals on the 'tops', or in the case of #6, which is for the rail roller wagon, the sides of fixed bodies.
No more trying to guess which Heywood wagon is which

Re: A few new signs...
And some more new signs! Had a request a while ago for signs more or less in the vein of early twentieth century Maine 2 foot gauge style. Not going off any particular prototype, so not sure if these are actually correct, but what the heck. Not sure what scale these would work out to either, my feeling would be 1/2 to 1/3 scale, maybe? If anyone is interested in some, let me know. These are spoken for, but the patterns are done and ready to go.
