Re: Locations of currently existing Griswold Signals
Other than the branding on the cantilevers for the splice boxes, not really. They appear to have been manufactured by some third-party company, as I've seen Peerless Manufacturing, GRS, Griswold, US&S, WRRS, and Transport Products Corp. all branded on these.IanMP wrote:Is there any differences?ZachL wrote:Could also be a US&S and/or a GRS cantilever as well.IanMP wrote:Found another Griswold cantilever!

Ok, CN mostly buys Safetran (Siemens), GS and WCH, i can guess they are Griswolds since there are many RACo/Safetran equipment on CN's tracks in Québecfreebrickproductions wrote:Other than the branding on the cantilevers for the splice boxes, not really.

Re: Locations of currently existing Griswold Signals
An easy indicator on the manufacturer (from Street View) is if the cantilever has the original lights on it, too. However, because of the signal(s) you've posted having after-market light installs, it's really difficult to tell for sure.

Heres a good idea.
Theres a external link on the Griswold Signal Company page on Wikipedia for Griswold Rotating Stop Signs that include Google Maps links.

Wow, that Wikipedia page looks pretty poor. I'm surprised that there isn't a box on the top of the page saying "This article has multiple issues."NathanFromEngland wrote:Heres a good idea.

We do have a thread that I recently created for rotating banner signals that are still in service.

It isn't that bad, the article has numerous sources. The article also features the Safetran logo and a Safetran signal.NathanFromEngland wrote:How about looking at Safetrans article, much worser, very light hearted creation.ToledoRailfan wrote:Wow, that Wikipedia page looks pretty poor.
