<p style="margin:0.1rem 0; line-height:1.0">I have been following the thread on the watch tower and saw your comments regarding the watch tower box at the Pulaski Museum. In 1998, I found that an Eagle Scout (Boy Scouts) had performed restoration on the box
of the former Pulaski watch tower (now living at the museum). I secured permission to measure the structure (it was still outside at that time), drove down, measured it and produced drawings in AutoCAD. I can contact you off line to show you what I have. </p>

Subject: crossing watch box/tower</p>
<p style="margin:0.1rem 0; line-height:1.0"> </p>
<div dir="ltr">I am looking for any/all information on N&W crossing watch boxes/towers. From the archives I have the following on actual and proposed locations:<br>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica"><span style="font-size:medium"><strong>proposed watch box tower & crossing gates, State Street, Bristol Va.</strong></span></span></span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in"><strong style="font-size:medium; font-family:arial,helvetica; color:#000000">Watch Box and Crossing gates Fleet Street</strong></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in"><strong style="font-size:medium; font-family:arial,helvetica; color:#000000">Hyde Park Ohio</strong></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in"><strong style="font-size:medium; font-family:arial,helvetica; color:#000000">Proposed crossing watch box tower for Boden Ferry Road X'ing, Norfolk Virginia</strong></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in"><strong style="font-size:medium; font-family:arial,helvetica; color:#000000">Harrison St. Radford, VA</strong></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in"><strong style="font-size:medium; font-family:arial,helvetica; color:#000000">Proposed location of watch tower at First Street (Comers Crossing), Hopewell, Va.</strong></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in"><strong style="font-size:medium; font-family:arial,helvetica; color:#000000">Proposed Crossing Gates, Ashville , OH</strong></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in"><strong style="font-size:medium; font-family:arial,helvetica; color:#000000">Proposed crossing gate and watch tower at West Ave. New Boston, OH</strong></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in">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.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in">Thanks in advance,</p>
