Welcome to the wonderful hobby of traffic signal and road sign collecting! My
name is John (aka: Signalfan), and I have had an interest in traffic control
devices for most of my life. Over the years, I've collected many of the
different types to create a virtual museum of signals and signs. At present, I
have over 100 traffic signals and more than 500 road signs in my collection.
Many examples are pictured here, so relax and enjoy the exhibits! Also, if you
are a model railroad enthusiast, I have recently built a 42' x 15' HO scale
layout as a centerpiece to the signals and signs that surround the museum space
(see below picture).
This site is devoted to the
unusual hobby of legally
collecting old, retired
traffic signals and road
signs. It is a way of
preserving the past and to
restore to life the traffic
control devices that have
helped shape our modern world.
Hopefully, the information
contained here can help people
to gain a better understanding
as to the differences, as well
as the similarities and
standards of design and
practice. Plus, signals and
signs are just plain fun to
collect and display!
If you are interested in
viewing the different styles
and varieties of signals from
around the United States,
Canada, Europe, and Australia,
please check out my
"Traffic Signal Pictures"
pages on my other website
"Traffic Signals.net". Also, if you are interested in seeing some
of the signals that pioneered traffic control during the early 20th century,
check out the
"Historical Signals" page.
