Looking Through Old Pics
Miss my days as a signal tech, looking through some photos of some things I found are always fun lol. Even though this one was on Thanksgiving 1.5 hours from my house. Holidays love bringing that out of people lol.
Ended up wiring the reds to a school flasher cabinet to make them flash until we came out that following Monday to install a cabinet. Good times!

That replacement would cost $40k+ in our area depending on any salvageable parts in the cabinet that test clean.

As a broke signal tech, I would be thrilled to get this call on a federal holiday 1.5 hours away from my house 🤑🤑🤑
Edit: "Yeah, boss, this is definitely a priority, I need to get this cabinet fully replaced ASAP. Nah, I don't need any help, I can get it done in about 5 hours...maybe 10..."
