Introducing ScaleSigns.com
The company has been around since 1995, but they have recently expanded their product line to include S-scale. They specialize in road and railroad roadway signs. These are very realistic models, with some of them weathered and aged. Their current S-scale product line includes railroad-crossing signs, various roadway stop signs, construction signs, roadway warning signs, mud flap signs for your 1:64 tractor-trailer trucks and trailers, and miscellaneous signs. A few examples are shown here, but they have way too many to list, so be sure to browse their well-organized web site for all that they have to offer. The company is located in Michigan, and they typically have a booth at local train shows (see their web site for the list of shows they are attending). Also, if you see something that they offer in any of the other scales but not (yet) in S-scale, contact them to see if they can add the same item for S-scale. The company is owned by a retired veteran.
