Oregon Wigwags
Medford
(11th Street)
Signal retired in 2016. Signal went to the Medford
Railroad Park in Medford.
This wigwag
is on the 11th St. crossing in downtown Medford. The surrounding buildings
are pear packing houses. At one time this all went south in PFE reefers,
now it's all by truck.
Detail

This was made by Union Switch and Signal Company, these are usually used
for semaphore, target signals and relay boxes, and once in a while, a wigwag.
