The mast from the previous northern signal is sitting off to the side.  It had a GS Type 2 E Bell.  There's also a concrete foundation and a Siemens gate mechanism. I thought maybe the other signal was being replaced too, but that never happened.

In March 2024, we see the remaining 1st Gen Harmon Dotted LEDs were replaced with GE Uniform Look LEDs, one in the existing frame and the other in a new 12"x20" Safetran frame. Also, the Safetran Type 3 was replaced with a new high tone Siemens E Bel.
