Proposedlocation of watch tower at First Street (Comers Crossing), Hopewell,Va.

ProposedCrossing Gates, Ashville , OH

Proposedcrossing gate and watch tower at West Ave. New Boston, OH

I am particularly interested in photos of these structures, but any information on them will be appreciated.  I have been told that in some cases, after they were no longer used at crossings  , they were removed from their towers and placed at various locations for different uses.

Thanks in advance,

Jim Cochran
