The issue was the Fall 2003 issue and the article was, "HIGHBALL! Old-Time Signals in Vermont" I keep that issue handy to go back and view it from time to time. Otherwise my "halftimers" ( a phrase coined by Dan H. in the Model Railroader Coffee Shop) would put me in the same boat and I wouldn't remember where or when the article was. [:)] <br /> <br />[/quote] <br /> <br /> <br />I remember seeing a photo of this somewhere, albeit not in a Kalmbach mag. I think the (still operating, at least at the time the photo was taken) highball signal was on the Maine Central... <br /> <br />And "halfheimers", doesn't everyone have that?![:D][}:)]
