Paul,
The signals on the Greenwood Lake Line stayed as Erie type signals. There was no need to change any of the signals as all possible signal indications were shown in the rule book.

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?
