This interesting little signal is just north of the Central Ave. crossing. It doesn't protect any crossing, nor is it even used to warn of trains. It's actually used to warn whenever the switch here is about to be thrown by the dispatcher. Very interesting concept, and one I don't think I've ever seen anywhere else. Depot St. #1 & Spaulding Tower are to the north and Central Ave. is to the south.
A return visit by Hopen111 shows no changes have occurred.

Various angles of the signal.
The only change between 2023 and 2026 is that the lights are now at an angle.

The updated signal. I don't know if it's been sitting like this for a while or I just so happened to see it slanted on this day.
