TT - 5-light signal pattern Světofor - CCCP, kit (etching by Hekttor)

Draft:
At the beginning of the 1950s, in connection with the imminent introduction of the speed signal system, a large number of light signals were purchased from the then USSR. It is not that light signals were unknown in the CSD at that time, for example, light signals of the well-known Ericsson company were already in use in our country. However, this venture started the advent of the world. signals on our lines on a massive scale. In the second half of the 1950s, the production of signals of the "Světofor" model in our country was taken over by the ESP Praha company, which at first produced essentially identical signals, and eventually came up with its own variant of the same. This one differed most noticeably in appearance by a narrower signal shield.
The signal was designed as a segmented signal - by combining two sets of shields - two- and three-light - it was possible to build signals with 2 to 5 lights.
Model:

Our kit represents just the original "CCCP" design. It was developed to our one and only correct size in cooperation with our customer. It has also been adapted to use specific KINGBRIGHT L-2060 LEDs, which are quite readily available. The LEDs are not included in the kit, they can be found e.g. in the accessories tab.

The kit is made of standard 0,3 mm brass sheet, which gives the model more rigidity and durability. Nevertheless, we have tried to make the kit as detailed as possible.
