Hi,
You are probably best off getting an old rule book. There is red and
yellow, but you need to arrange the colors on a lamp so you can display any
combo.
It's pretty complicated what to display when. I attached a picture of one
page from my 49' rulebook. It depends on the number of track and where the
train is.

Red/red would be what I'd show if you are not going to be able to switch
each side from red/yellow independently.


Cheers,
David
