I would not be surprised if some of that equipment was still in use. We had to contract with a control cab simulator builder for a major commuter railroad. They ran a work train equipped with several cameras around the system and recorded locations with a GPS. There were signals out there that did not appear on any documemtation and no one knew why they were there.
That is a wonderful piece of gear. It is fixable whereas everything today is disposable. I only got into Railcars 2 1/2 years ago, but I spend a lot of time with old timers.

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?
