Cantilever Signal Identification

Post by f40ph203 » Sun Nov 27, 2011 1:21 am

Was wondering if anybody could identify the manufacturer of the 2 signals that guarded the Hwy 33 crossing in Horicon, WI. The lights on these signals are Griswold Type Bs...one signal has a Safetran Base, where one appears to have a base from a traffic signal.

Are these non-walkway canitlevers something of Griswold origin? Or another?

Thanks!

Definitely Griswold lights... but I don't know if I have seen those type of cantilevers before. Interesting find.

It occurred to me while driving around today, that the origins of that cantilever is actually a traffic light! Didn't get a chance to shoot a photo of one, but once I get the cantilever installed (I just bought it for my collection), you'll be seeing more of it.

I've seen that in Lansing, Michigan with 12"x20" , so they do exist but probably, but are barely rare to find.
