Does anybody know where one could find a catalog or manual for Griswold crossing gates (the style typical of the Milwaukee Road) that would show ordering options, sign styles, gate styles and lengths, etc?
Thanks!

Re: Griswold Crossing Gates
Did Griswold ever make gates?
Are you referring to the gate, or the mechanism?

Just the facts, ma'am.
Re: Griswold Crossing Gates
Not necessarily the gate or the mechanism. The entire signal. Something that would show configurations on ordering the complete signal, or something that would show how they were originally equipped. Most of the Griswold (EMs I've heard them referred to as) that I've seen have red/white gate arms, modern reflective crossbucks, stationary mounted gate lights...whereas originally they had swinging gate lights, marbled crossing signs, and black/white gate arms.
I recall seeing a catalog for the Griswold rotating banner, showing various options, and figured something must exist for the gated signals...maybe not?
