The four ways
|
The Crouse Hinds Type M signal on the left is now appropriately mounted and off the plastic bucket its been sitting on for seven years.
The signal on the right is an older model Crouse Hinds Type D from the mid 1940s. The Type M is from the late 1950s.
Both signals have been restored...the Type M signal was spray painted by me, the Type D was professionally powdercoated

The hardest part was getting the thing up on the pole. It is about 90 pounds and a bulky thing to try to align...I ended up taking the body sections apart and stacking them individually
Typically 3-section, 8 inch aluminum signals are 20-25 pounds... 3-section 12 inch aluminum signals are 35-45 pounds each.
Plastic 3-section, 8 inch is roughly 12-18 pounds, 12 inch is 18-20 pounds. Weight varies depending on the parts used reflectors/LED fixtures, etc
The 3M head is 65 pounds!
