Resting here are the 4 signal masts w/signals attached which once stood guard atop the MP 242 signal bridge on the west end of Horsehoe Curve. (This bridge was not visible from the curve itself.) A very special thanks goes out to Mr. Greg Saylor, of Saylor Sons Inc., a rigging/lifting company based out of Altoona. He took posession of these signals from Norfolk Southern and has graciously permitted the CRHS to pick any complete mast we want. Consequently, we will be taking posession of the first mast located at the bottom of this photo. This mast comes complete with both A and B heads, as well as the number plate 242.7. On behalf of the myself and the organization, we will be forever grateful for your donation; thank you!
