On Christmas Day, December 25, 2007, the signal toppled over!

You can see where the mast broke off. This was just PVC pipe, and not a real metal mast.
Despite the fall, there's very little damage here.

The crossbuck is a slightly dented...
The gate took the fall the worst though.
Everything else turned out okay.

222

223

224

The light frames, and even the Teardrop bell turned out just fine. Little to no damage to everything else.

226

The 12"x24" signal is all that remains.
The signal disassembeled, and put back into storage until a new mast can be acquired.

 

Note: The gate and the right Safetran light took the blunt of the fall, he had to go hunting for that light head. It was found it in the bushes about 70 feet away. It was broken, but was pretty easy to fix.

 

As of January 20, 2010, the signal has not been rebuilt yet, and an ETA on when is not available.
