(erielack) Odd signal

["Paul Brezicki" <doctorpb_@_bellsouth.net>]

Paul, "233-2" would make it the signal for the EB (#2) track about 3 miles
east of Owego (mp 236.1). I know I've seen at least one other on the S Tier,
possibly at Canisteo. The former Erie main had an impressive assortment of
signal types: round tricolors, vertical tricolors, single targets and
semaphores mounted on masts or cantilevers. If you were modelling it you
could use almost any type and be correct.

Hi folks,

Was going through some more photos today, and found an EL freight
train passing the signal in the attached image.  The image is somewhere in
New York's Southern Tier, I believe. How many of these
triangle-shaped-indication signal heads did they have? Were these the only
ones? (there's another on the opposite side of the track, facing the other
way)
