Re: Miniature Crossing Signals

Not in a park but a nice reproduction(in cast alum instead of heavy iron) of the Miniature Train Companies crossing signal. This will be going on my 7.5in gauge backyard railroad we are building.

GRS Lex C 8" light heads

looking for 2 or 4 good LEX-C light heads, even if its just the reflector housing. Just has to have a good mount for the cross arm elbow. I have 3 of 4 of them in parts but all of them have the typical broke off portion where it mounts to the metal arms. Thanks in advance.
