Coldwater, MI General Electric Four Way Haul.
Here's a "selfie" of me after strapping in my latest signal grab. I picked up these twin General Electric four ways from the city of Coldwater, Michigan on 11/18/2016. These were located at the intersection of W. Pearl Street and S. Clay Street from the early 1940s until they were removed from service in 2011. They are special to me because in October of 2010, me and a few other traffic signal guys came out to Coldwater to take photos of these signals in service, unknowing that they'd be taking out of service a year later. I reached out a few months back to ask the whereabouts, found out they were still around and bought both of them from the city.

It's cool that you got a picture of them in service and neat that the city kept them in storage for the last 5 years.

I couldnt believe they kept them that long. The contacts I had with the city were very nice and seemed to understand the historic aspect of the signals
