Yet another signal fan

Postby Ty- on Wed Jan 07, 2009 11:17 pm

Hello everyone. I first started collecting traffic lights about ten years ago. I began to aquire different lights, mostley Marbelites, and was giving them away to friends for their garages. I have since stopped doing that and keep them for myself now...I wish I kept some of the lights I gave away. My collection is small and has some railroad pieces in it. I really enjoy reading your expertise and detail with regard to the restoration. It was this forum that inspired me to really want to put signals back to their original splendor. You all are very knowledgable and reading through the posings you provide a wealth of informaion. I hope I can contribute in some way. Thanks for having me.
