Facing west.	Front view of the westbound signal.	Side view.	A US&S signal base.

 

These signals are all-US&S, including the 12" x 20" light housings, bases, masts, mechanical bell, and Model 75 gate mechanisms. These are the same kind of signals that are common northwest up the line in Mauston. The lights have had L.E.D.s put in them just within the last few months.
