Our Trip to the RR Salvage Yard

Friday, Dad had 1/2 day off because his class won the canned food drive at work, so we went for a little road trip! Special thanks to Grandma & Grandpa and Uncle Bubba's family who shared David that day!!!

One man's junk... This is the pile where Dad found his 2 searchlight signals. One of them was in good enough condition that he's already had it lit up! And yes, I forgot to photograph the stuff that he loaded into the truck.

They had a couple of old BN cabooses sitting out there.

These are relays. I think it has something to do with making the signals switch colors?

And I think these are the control boxes that you'll see at the base of a signal alongside a railroad track. Looked kinda like a cemetery.
