• Design: It features a stamped-metal tower painted bright red, resting on a heavy die-cast black base. The vertical signal head houses three stacked light bulb sockets intended for green, amber, and red lenses to control toy train traffic on a layout. • Dimensions: Standing at roughly 6.5 to 7 inches tall (as indicated by the ruler in the photo), it includes screw-type terminal binders near the base to connect it directly to model railroad tracks or a power transformer. • Condition: The piece shows signs of age, surface rust, paint chipping, and is missing its original colored plastic light hoods/lenses.
