    Just wanted to say thank you for giving a poly signal a home with you I personally like plastic signals quite a bit and have both aluminum and plastic ones and like them equally

    What is this lovely and kind of catchy music in the video that I am watching?

    Interesting. My father-in-law just passed away a few weeks ago. He was one of the original engineers who was involved in the modernization of Traffic control systems in the "60"s for Multisonics. He eventually started his own business Dynamic Traffic Systems. I worked for him for 25 years. If you ever want some insider info i can share with you what he shared with me through the years. Especially how his small business saved billions for tax payers by forcing the average cost of a controller down from $2000 to about $1000.

    I FINALLY FOUND IT!!!!!!! Surrounded by Love - Smashtrax was the first song you used in this video! It took some trial and error, but I FINALLY FOUND IT AFTER 3 YEARS OF HEARTACHE AND SEARCHING!

    Watch out for that Speed Bump at 1: 04, I wonder if they have a Pakistan cop directing traffic with this music! Thanks, love the lights and colors, should have brought back a sign from Germany, some of them were funny in the translation, abfarht, etc. I guess the curator is an electrician that take a lot of juice.

    Well that's impressive. Good editing on the video too

      Thank you very much! I really enjoy editing video and getting all to "sync".

    • @Cartoondude135
      @Cartoondude135 Před 8 lety

      +Signalfan Why u change the music? I love it and I have yet to find the name of it. (The previous track u used before this one that is.)

    • @Signalfan
      @Signalfan  Před 8 lety

      It was changed because the music owner wanted to use their ads and the video couldn't be monetized.

    • @Cartoondude135
      @Cartoondude135 Před 8 lety

      +Signalfan Pity. I should've recorded it down with Audacity when I had the chance. -_- Aw well. Maybe it might turn up on one of the soundtrack website I visit.

    • @Cartoondude135
      @Cartoondude135 Před 8 lety

      Well, do you at least remember the name of the previous song you used for this video before this new one got it replaced? Because these are the kind of songs that really challenge me to find their name as they have *no lyrics at all!* If you do, great. I'll be sure to find it on google in no time.

  • @TheRealDorran

    John, please review the yellow signal light. (I mean the one at 0:45)

  • @Cartoondude135
    @Cartoondude135 Před 9 lety +2

    Please make a vid showing how the traffic signal with the advanced protected left turn arrow works. By that, I mean the one at 0:17 on the left of the screen.

    For a small house, you can actually fit a whole city and some traffic lights into it 😂

  • @Cartoondude135
    @Cartoondude135 Před 9 lety +1

    May I use the music u used in this video for my videos that I'm making please? I can't find the name of this track. It sounds so beautiful.

    Did any of the lights have clear lenses? I found a couple of light holders that are completely circular and have clear lenses. The only mark I can find on the lens is L.G. Co. 4342. The holders appear to be made out of tin or copper. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, David

    Like, the current song playing in this vidoe is Saint Gary - John Deley and the 41 Players. So, do you remember the name of the last song you used in this video?I wanna find it, but so far, no luck. Worse, it has no lyrics at all.
