[stevechurch2222]

I am modeling the Milwaukee Road from Perry,Iowa-Savanna,Illinois from 1979-1985 as if the Iowa Division mainline was rebuilt with 132 pound rail,I am modeling the griswold crossing gate with the "a' frame gate arms with red and white stripes,these were common in Perry,Iowa and areas along the Iowa Division like Madrid,Collins,Wooodward I believe,just wondering if anyone has any photos of these gate in the up position that they would be willing to share and  post.the photos I have are of the gate in the lowered position.I am modeling in HO Scale and going to build a 24'x24' in the future hopefully later this year if the wife and I can find a house to rent with a basement.Any help will be greatly appreciated.
