Seabright and Murray Sts.

Further south (of the Boardwalk) you'll find this one located at Murray and Seabright Streets. I remember just a few years ago, this one was looking rather shabby.

A close up of the Seabright wigwag banner. If you look closely, you'll notice that the banner was recently replaced. This is a reproduction banner. The sun visor is different than the original type. Also note where the banner attaches to the pole. Instead of the usual two riveted straps, it used one piece that is welded on. You'll need to compare this banner with a close-up of an original, unmodified banner to see what I'm attempting to point out.

The flip side of the Seabright wigwag showing cantilever detail. It took me a minute to notice what was a little different about this signal...the pole actually extends a few inches above the cantilever. Very uncommon with SP wigwags. Also notice bell cover has a large chip out of it!

Seems to disapear in the sea of traffic lights
and streetlights.
