Hi Roy
As what Em says using R51’s signal kit assets, you could try placing those tunnel signals for a test on your tunnel assets if only you’ve already installed the R51’s models off from dls. In addition to your tunnels will they simulate real lighting? Is the tunnel well compatible enough with all Memeboy’s NSW Sydney Train fleet models including David’s V set models?
And Steve, in your last screenshot (pg 2321) I notice you’re using David’s V set in RailCorp/CityRail livery is that available cos it wasn’t on Worrybrook Station nor on the dls?

Thanks for your feedback mate, and Emmy, and Steve. I appreciate it.
It had slipped my mind regarding Ranger's set of signals. I did test them out when they were released but found the tunnel signals rather close to the track. So today, I cloned one and made a change to the Trackside measurement from -2 to -2.85 and now it actually sits snugly on the wall of the tunnel. I'll now send a message off to Ranger, to see if we can make a deal.
And, "Will the tunnels simulate real lighting?" Most probably not. With the standard Trainz environment clock set at 10.00am inside a tunnel, it's only a little shadier than being outside. But if the environment clock is set to say 20.00 (8.00pm) then it's really dark; and then depending on what train you are running, then you need a decent set of headlights. Then generally, the headlights can obliterate any signals ahead. We can't produce real life in a hobby, but we can appreciate what each of us can achieve in our models.
Here are some comparison shots,.... just a little wide of the tunnel wall.
The 'clone' fits snugly against the wall
A Red Rattler has just passed - I could darken the tunnel floor a little more and change the rails.

Low-beam from an A Set
Low-beam from a C Set
And finally low-beam from a V Set
And I did have memeboy, davido and NSWGR_46class models in mind when building my tunnel,
And, to add to Steve's comment,... some of Davido's V Sets are still available at,...
