Christiansburg N&W CPLs Going, Going, . . .

[NW Mailing List]

Evan,
 
All I know is that it served somewhere in West Virginia. It was retired  
sometime around 1991. Norfolk Southern donated two of them it in exchange for  
some graphics work when I was in the printing industry years ago. The 
second one  is still with my partner in crime, LOL, but has not been restored.
 
The number plate is not original to this signal. It was my street address  
before the county changed it for the enhanced 911 project.
 
In 1997 when the signals were upgraded on the Shenandoah Division, Ken  
Miller and myself bought 23 tons of retired signal equipment. This lot included 
 nine more CPL signals which we have since sold off. I know the northbound 
signal  from Nace is now at the Boyce, Virginia station but I'm not sure if 
it has been  restored yet.
 
Thanks,

You've got one good looking signal!  Where did it serve exactly on  the N&W 
and when was it retired?
