Consider it done!!



Now if only I could get these to David and see them up sooner than June...

If you want you can send me the pictures and I can make the pages for them and I'll send them to David, it makes it a bit more efficient and easier. The only thing I can't do is make the headers because I don't have Photoshop so David (or Tommy for my Ohio pages) make the headers.

Interesting setup.

Very old active crossing in San Martín, Buenos Aires Province near Buenos Aires.

Wow, there a lot of people crossing here at this station and busy crossing! The crossing equipment is very old! This crossing should be updated.

Here is the crossing active.

Those are kind of like scenes that you would see in a very poor country like Mexico or India! Not a first world country like Argentina!

Image owning this house! You would practically have very old signals in your front yard!

Sure!

Also, I guess he gave you the templates? I could work on them myself if I had the templates, but being a college student and having a job doesn't help with limited time.

I can send the Templates to you if you want, along with copies of some useful programs. I may also be able to squeeze them into the March update.

Cool, I'd appreciate that! I emailed you a OneDrive link to the pictures, by the way!

Got them. I'll see about sending you the webpage files in a little bit.

Speaking of photos for the website, I sent some more crossing photos to you a couple of weeks ago. Have you got them?

I'll check in the morning, but I believe I did.

Found some rather interesting signals in Massachusetts...

I believe these older cantilevers are now all LED, including the 8 inch lights:

Nice set of older cantilevers here:
https://www.google.com/maps/@42.187058, ... 6656?hl=en

8 inch LED's on one side, 12 inch incandescent on the other side, and duct tape holding the junction box cover on...

Another set of older cantilevers:

Too bad there isn't a more recent, clearer, streetview image of this crossing... but still pretty interesting. I particulalry like the concrete enclosure for the mast signal with cutouts for the gate and gate motor:

All 8 inch LED's at this crossing it appears!

Traffic light cantilever

Some old signals on this shortline in Fowler, IN!

Plus, a pretty interesting triple cantilever setup on this divided highway
