Another update. I've gotten really bad with this. It was a rough spring and summer this year. Busy at work, dealing with my dad's estate and having a knee operation. Fall is here now and time for a quick update on things. I've had this Crouse Hinds neon pedestrian signal for a long time. Over... Continue Reading →
Update Time finally
Hey there. Remember me? Yeah it's been a while since I last updated this. There's been quite a few upgrades/finds/stuff since I last promised an update. Picked up this Crouse Hinds 4 way signal September 2022. Had to drive to Connecticut to get it, but that was ok since I was driving there for something... Continue Reading →

Varick Street & Columbia Street, Utica, NY. The pedestal bases are the only ones surviving in... Continue Reading →
The Art Deco Is Alive Again!
After quite a while, The Deco (Big Green) is back running once again. It's been sitting in the basement for quite a while and got it hanging at Easter. Took 3 of us to do it since it's really heavy. This is probably my favorite signal of the ones I've got. Saw so many of... Continue Reading →
Crouse Hinds Art Deco Type D
One of my all-time favorites (so far) is a Crouse Hinds Type D Art Deco Signal. This dates from more than likely the early 1950's (which is older than me lol) although I'm not sure of a specific year. From what I can find, these were around $900 or so brand new. This was the... Continue Reading →
