Any one on this list,  If you have two switch locks with keys of  either Erie 
or EL vintage, and would like to assist the NS with there display of  a 
semephore signal at head quarters, please contact Michael Bickham,  at

Let me back up a bit. Here in corporate headquarters we have a small museum  
that encompasses all our predecessor railroads. Tom Ables and I refurbished an 
 old 1920's era semaphore signal. It's in working order and we've replaced 
the  door with Lexan and lit the interior so people could see the inter-working. 
Of  course we had to reduce the height. We have a foot switch so kids can 
activate  the head mechanism. We're just getting it installed yesterday and today 
and I  need two switch locks to keep kids out of the cabinets. The original 
signal was  set up near Endicott, NY. so without doing research I'm guessing 
the Erie  Lackawanna RR. Do you know someone who has two switches and is willing 
to sell  them to us? Appreciate any advice you can throw our way.
