I have a friend that has listed an old "Turn-of-the-Century" Big Four/NYC era depot with an old NYC Semaphore included. If anyone knows of a museum or preservation group that might be interested in purchasing and moving this old building; please contact me here and I will forward them or you the contact information.
Not really. Where is it at? Is the "semaphore" a train-order board?
If you know of any in New York State that need help/funds, please post the info.

The Depot is in Central Indiana, the semaphore is an old Big Four or NYC position signal light w/arms that indicate Green, Yellow or Red positions. The depot (I believe) was a passenger and freight depot that ceased being used in the mid-1950s. It does not sit adjacent to the tracks; it has been moved about 100-feet away from its original location.
I hope this helps.
Has the Whitewater Valley Railroad (in Connersville on a former Big Four/ CCC&StL line) been approached?
They recently moved Dearborn Tower there.

I belong to the Haley Tower group in Terre Haute. There may be some interest there
