From my outdoor collection comes this awesome vintage full size US&S Colorlight signal. I acquired this item from a collector in the Springfield Illinois area many years ago who indicated to me that it had come off of the Illinois Central line. I believe it is circa 1920's or 1930's. The signal head is made of cast iron and when installed on the mast, it will stand approximately 9' tall. The sheet metal shroud has quite a few dents and a hole that remain from people shooting at it.
The good news is the cast iron housing and the bulb sockets inside are not damaged from the activity of these riff raffs. I estimate the weight of the whole thing to be at least 500+ pounds. It has been repainted and I have extra new paint included to touch up any scratches that will occur from disassembly, transport and reassembly. The easiest way to transport this is to remove the shroud from the signal head which is easy. Please see pictures and thank you for your interest.
