This might be off of the subject slightly, but does any one know where I can find a switch for a traffic light. Like flashing from green to yellow, to red? The changing from one to the other would be a plus in my filling station. Les

In my backyard I had several signals hooked up to an actual controller. You can easily make a timer and use a real load switch, or even buy a ready-made one as described. Lights to go sells come really good ones. Traffic signal collecting is my favorite because they multiply like the pumps never did.


Antique? It's new to me.

I think a service station, with restrooms, a phone booth, Tow truck, mail box, and a signal light would be too cool...

They are heavy,and I will have them on a stand, instead of hanging them. I tried them out in my filling station, but they take away from my lighted pumps,because they are so bright. I tried them out in the weather, butI decided to have them in side the filling station,although they probably have never seen a roof until they arrived at my place. Les

leswarner - I played around with different watt bulbs to tone down the signal light in my stairwell...if I would have left the original bulbs in, it would have blinded me on the stairs. I'm heading for that 50 mark and the old bones don't need forward rolls down a stairwell! (lol)
