Someone posted these pictures on Facebook from the early 80's at this crossing that show the old teardrop and also the original 8 inch lights on all the signals. Ahhh memories!

Welcome to the forums! Those are some cool wigwags there!
BTW, did you mean "is" in your post instead of "was", BTW? Because "was" in you post implies that they are now gone.
They/Them for me, please.

No, they are those photos were taken on July 5, 2015 that is two days , and the other last week.

I mean that before in Chile had many, many wig wags in nearly all crossings , all went to the kilo and scrap and disappeared almost all , I rescued something, this teardrop is mine and I work.
