Marbelite 4 Way Signal
This 4 way became a part of The
Traffic Signal Museum in December of 2003. It has had four different owners in the last
few years.
This signal was found in the warehouse of Twin
Green by Francis K. Francis was informed that this signal saw service somewhere in the state of
Kansas. Below is a picture of how it looked when Francis bought it.
Francis gave the signal a new paint job as seen
below.
For one reason or another, Francis decided to
sell this signal in 2003 and it appeared on Ebay. Another signal collector by
the name of Chris purchased it. Then shortly after that, Chris decided to sell
the signal and it ended up in The Traffic Signal Museum. Because of all the
traveling the signal did after the first repaint, the signal was scratched up
some and needed to be repainted again. The signal was sandblasted in January of
2004. Since painting weather was still a few months away, the signal was
reassembled for a few months unpainted.
