Interesting one. I've never seen them make the wooden poles with a round cut on the bottom so they would fit in the signal bases.

Based on the size of the relay box... the signals that were there had to be ancient, and the railroad decided not to spend the money to upgrade them.

Someone sure went to a lot of work for that one
