42packard Petro Enthusiast Registered: Tue May 02 2006 Loc: Allyn, Wa	Rick - this way I can keep my eyes on it - over there it would be in somebody else'e yard - I also have a semaphore for the caboose but it hid away also. As for the crossing sign - it does light up and the bell does ring but only when I hit the switch.

Alex Moderator, Value Forum Registered: Mon Dec 08 2003 Loc: Butte, Montana USA	We were out there in September to watch Ichiro hit a two run homer in the bottom of the 9th to beat the Yankees. I wanted to bring my wife down to meet your wife to show her that gas pumps look great upstairs and how to decorate a house with oil and gas. Next time out we will stop by. _________________________ Alex

THE AMERICAN GARAGE Showcase Feature Host Registered: Wed Jun 02 2004 Loc: PECONIC BAY, L.I., NY, USA	MY HELPERS WERE A COUPLE OF MILK CRATES! AND THEY ARE MOUNTED IN A MANNER THAT THE BACK OF THE SIGN IS NOT FLAT (TOUCHING) AGAINST THE SHED. I AM NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO THE MOUNTING OF A HEAVY D/S PORC SUNOCO DIAMOND SIGN THAT IS 4X6' OVER A DIFFERENT SHEDS DOORS. GONNA NEED A LADDER FOR THAT ONE! _________________________ DOC @ THE AMERICAN GARAGE
