Wig Wags: BNSF50

[Cactushead]

These are some fine highly detailed and well done assets. But, I don't know how to hook them to a crossing. They have a red line running thru them which I assumed were invisible track, but that can't be right, because when I attached a track to them, the signal was in the middle of the track. I don't think the signal maintainer dept. would appreciate having to go out and replace a signal everytime a train went thru.:hehe:
Also, I noticed that they are not pre-connected to a crossing ramp like all the other signals. So, my question is. how do I hook these beauties up so they work when a train goes by?

are these the ones with "NRC" in the title? If so they are designed to work with Boat's ATLS system. Look up ATLS on the DLS to get the other parts for the system (it makes for much more flexible crossings) Tutorials are here:

They're on the DLS. Look for stuff made by "BNSF50". If you don't want to use the ATLS system download the ones that DO NOT contain "NRC" in the title.

Unfortunately, all the wig wags are 'NRC.' which means a lot of work. Why can't people just stick to the KISS principle? I have no idea what else to download, and tutorials just don't do me any good. I've been playing with G-max for several years, and have made absolutely no process at all. Guess I'll just stick them on backroad crossings and pretend they work.

I just took a look thru the DLS and found quite a few different Wig Wags by BNSF50 that are now NRC/ATLS.
Such as:
KUID:39134:101309
KUID:39134:101170
KUID:39134:101199

Not true: Try this one. <kuid2:39134:101193:3>
There are other wig wag crossings by bnsf50 that are not "NRC".
