I rcently got in some hardware to use for the signals so thought I'd give them a test. Here's the Signal Bridge on the lower level in front of the refinery.
Everything worked as planned.

And look at how I'm wiring them:

A CML Electronics SIGM 20 in the wiring panel is connected to 6-pole surface mount boxes. A 6 conductor cable is then connected from that box to another surface mount box at the signal.
There I'm using a Cat5 8 conductor surface mount because these were the only ones I could find that had screw terminals instead of punch down terminals. Wires from the signal LEDs are secured to the approprate terminal. With only 6 wires used here, I probably could have doubled up the signals on one wire/connection like I am going to do for the double targets, but oh well.
