Walpole Ma 1980? Now if this 1980 then behind me to the right is a US&S electric Home semaphore.

From what i understand the semaphore/s were removed in 1983.. WHY did i NOT get a picture of the electric Union B semaphore.

11/23/15. well incorrectly stated about Stiles mechanical on a bracket the signal is actually a cantilever with an electric Union Switch and Signal style B with case. an H2 Union dwarf .

Never was a Stiles up there .. i was so sure there was .

 

But i know for a fact of one Stiles mechanical derail signal

at the Gilmor's siding.

 

Interesting note

W R Sykes 1881 installation of interlocking at Walpole

including left hand Brit type Red and green indication spectacle with round lenses with slatted blade and Ball finial. the machine was a tappet Stevens pattern.
