Wonder what these are? There used to be a good looking wigwag here (as still noted by the 6/16/2004 FRA report that says the wigwag still exists), but according to Dan's Wigwag Site, the wigwag was knocked down by a car in October, 2003 and was too damaged to salvage any parts.

 

These 12"x20" incandescent lights with 2 (possibly WABCO) mechanical bells are it's replacement. You can still see the concrete base that the wigwag used to sit at in picture 3.

 

The left background on the 12"x20" signal on picture 1 looks a little damaged.

This one was also injured on 10/2003, but still lives on. The cantilever was extended out a bit to make sure the wigwag doesn't fall onto the road. Andrew predicts this wigwag is gone by 2007.

 

It also looks as though, as was when the Banks wigwag was alive, the light is an L.E.D. light, although the banner is now a thick, black "+", instead of a red "X".

This train was just sitting here blocking any chance of these signals going off.

A side look at the Banks signals.
