Re: Miniature Crossing Signals
Here's some miniature signals near Birch-Bay, Washington. I can't recall much, but the lights were 8" Safetran without visors and a Safetran mechanical bell painted yellow. This is located at a mini-golf/ family entertainment park. Went here for the Santa train ride as a young child in 2006.

Re: Miniature Crossing Signals
Here are some interesting crossings at PortAventura World which is a Spanish amusement park.

Re: Miniature Crossing Signals
The Tiny Town & Railroad which is this interesting tourist attraction in Morrison, Colorado has a crossing with a Peach Basket wigwag and an interesting homemade signal.

Re: Miniature Crossing Signals
Oddly enough, the wigwag is actually a full-sized one. Nothing small about it at all!ToledoRailfan wrote:The Tiny Town & Railroad which is this interesting tourist attraction in Morrison, Colorado has a crossing with a Peach Basket wigwag and an interesting homemade signal.

I wonder when the street view was taken, it doesn't say it for me.

Re: Miniature Crossing Signals
Nope... no date on mine either. If you notice, they must have been there before the park opened as their is hardly anybody around (except employees). The lady in the white shirt also was escorting him as she is in every shot about 10 feet in front of him most of the time.NathanFromEngland wrote:Six Flags, Arlington Texas.

Looks like based on this sign it must have been around summer of 2013.

I didn't notice that. They sound kind of unusual if they are.freebrickproductions wrote:Sounds like they use WRRS mini-bells! Wow!
Re: Miniature Crossing Signals
Interesting how the wig wag swings almost a full 180 side to side. It also appears to be completely motorized (no magnets involved). I kind of like it!
