I made it!

Hi guys, just wanted to let you know I made it over... It looks great Ed! I changed my name from JoeTypeD4Way, one of my favorite lights, to StopCautionJoe. Something different I guess. I was born and raised in Poughkeepsie, NY and recent'y moved a few miles away to my new home of Milton, NY. Poughkeesie at one time had a Crouse Hinds 4 way at EVERY intersection, and now only one still hangs, it's is a 4 section 4 way with turn arrow right in the center of town. The City Electrician claims he's taking down when the weather is nicer and said he'll be calling me. I told him I'd rather him leave it up than for him to give it to me.. he laughed and said I don't get it.

I used to collect all kinds of lights but have been narrowing my collection down to just mainly Crouse Hinds stuff and older stuff. I don't have much old stuff except for a CH Type T 4 way but I'm always searching the antique shops, flea markets, etc. I have mostly got rid of everything I had in the past, all my Eagle stuff is gone, polys, etc.

I met a new neighbor of mine who lives down the road. I was outside one day cleaning up a newly found light and he stopped and was mesmerized. He told me he had a couple 8inchers in his garage and ALWAYS wanted a 4 way. Well, I got him hooked and his wife hates me now.. I told him to come to the club, his name is Joe too, go figure, he just recently took a drive to Phils and said he had a blast out there.

I am now rambling, and before you get any more bored I'll end this by saying thanks to Ed for hooking this up and allowiing the club to flourish. Thanks to Signalfan John for starting it all.

I'll get my avatar up when I find something good...

See you around..

Glad you finally made it over Joe. I was beginning to think you got lost. :grin:

LMK if you have any questions or if you need help with anything.

Cheers,

Hey Joe,

Glad to see you made it here. Haven't heard much from you lately so it's good to see you back.
I'm so old I remember when the word "mother" only had one meaning!!!
