I would like to see rail semaphores (w/ masts). Regular signals could have a flat blade with white stripe and chain signals could be a yellow chevron blade with black stripe. They should still light up like normal signals to provide all essential context (they wouldn't be much to look at from the side) as this mod is almost purely aesthetic in nature.

Interesting idea! I'd love to see something like this too, since it could certainly make the railways more vibrant. Good thinking!

Might be fun to have an alternative signal. Good diversion at least.

The Realistic Electric Trains mod adds overhead power lines, which include signal versions. They would so benefit from this.

If anyone was looking to make it happen, that'd be a place to start: aside from the power line bits, they already have the structure in place to hang the blades from.
