What type of gooseneck is on yours? Is that the one that was on it while in service?

It is a Crouse hinds. It came with an aluminum Marb 4 hook, twin to a aluminum CH 4 hook.

All of the (in service) photos show the same style as the PKC164 goose-neck.

Baltimore often mixed tunnels with cutaways on the green, but not always. There are and have been plenty of uniform tunnel or cutaway signals in Baltimore.

Sorry to dig up this thread, but does anyone know how many GEs are left in Baltimore? I would like to visit there someday to document old signals.

So far, I only know of 3 that are still in service as of 2012 street view. There are 2, and I think people have visited them before; they have been LEDed and they are still functioning, facing the wrong way on a one way street.
Then there is another one, I don't know if anyone else knows about it. It is still incandescent but is disconnected. It too is facing the wrong way on a one way street.

So, are there any more? I am making a list of old Baltimore signals. Thanks

A great thread indeed!

I was fortunate enough to acquire a G.E. streamline from Kent (aka "Fenders"). Other projects have forced me to keep it up in the attic at the moment but hoping to eventually get around to having it powder coated. It's one signal that I would love to hang on the wall of my game room, especially since it's so much lighter in weight than many other R-Y-G signals. I love the brochure that shows the woman holding onto the signal. It shows how much light weight it is and with the woman's style of appearance you can see the era of when it came along.

Been watching ebay for 8" glass G.E. lenses (just the brick style with the G.E. logo in the middle) but never seem to find any. I would think they would be easy to come by but I guess not. Would make it complete to have these in the signal instead of a generic lense.

Good information on the thread! Well done!
