Continuing my line of signal questions from last week... :) I thought I read that when the DL&W Boonton Line and the Erie Greenwood Lake Branch were connected in 1963, DL&W-style signals were installed on the Greenwood Lake. Is that true, or are all those signal originally Erie? If not, what did the Erie originally have? The Greenwood Lake was made up primarily of DL&W-style 3-lamp/single head ABS signals, with some DL&W-style-with-Erie-positioning approach signals (usually a 3-lamp/single head signal above a horizontally-offset 2-lamp/single head signal), but most (all?) interlocking signals were of the standard Erie 3-head searchlight variety. I assume the searchlights are original, but were the ABS and approach signals new with the EL connection? - Paul The Erie Lackawanna Mailing List http://EL-List.railfan.net/ To Unsubscribe: http://Lists.Railfan.net/erielackunsub.html ------------------------------
