Setting Up Signals

[bigboy4010]

Forgive me if this has already been answered in another thread. I'm new to signal systems when it comes to setting them up, so I'm wondering if anyone has any tips. The line I want set up is a double mainline with one station and three branches to industries. There are two spots where there are crossovers for the mainline. this is the basic configuration I came up with.

How would I set up signals on this line?

Thanks rweber. That's nice to have handy. Now I've got a new problem though. I was only able to find two American semaphores on the DLS, and they both face the same direction. If I want the signals to be on both tracks facing the same direction, then one is in the middle of the line, which is by no means prototypical. Is there a way I can flip a track object so that it stays on the same side of the tracks but turns around?

Are you using single track laid side by side or double track? signals are track direction orientated.

It's double track. Do I need to relay where the signals are with single track?
