C&E Line Schubert at Lakewood Chicago December 28 2004

This crossbuck had recently replaced a remnant Griswold signal at this location. Peerless Confectionery with a tank car is in the background.

 

The Milwaukee Road was a big customer of Griswold which featured rotating stop signs to warn drivers of an approaching train. Railroad & Railfan magazine did an excellent feature on Griswold and its grade crossing signals recently.

 

That black Taurus by the tank car was my company car back then.
