Delhi Wig Wag on May 12th, 2023 in its new home @ the Colorado Railroad Museum.

This is the first in-situ test of the soft start power circuit for the Delhi Wig Wag.
The Delhi Wig Wag is now alive and well in its new exhibit at the Colorado Railroad Museum. A push button now activates the wig wag with a soft start and soft stop limiting inductive inrush current that will allow the wig wag to operate for many years to come. There is a cool down period of 10 minutes between button pushes. See the Delhi Wig Wag in its new home in Golden, CO.
The museum is still looking for a period correct man hole, vault cover to complete the correct look of the Delhi Wig Wag's vault. BNSF had thus far not been helpful in locating one as they remove Semaphores from the region with the same vault cover. The LED relay case power indication lamp will be installed soon as well.
Here is a video of it in action with its interim installation: • Delhi, Co wigwag now a...

Go press the button! It is well thought out for preservation of the wig wag.

for a 100 year old signal its in immaculate condition.

[@handdryersrule]

A bit ashamed that this was the last wigwag on a mainline, and the FRA had forced the rail company to remove it. This thing was working just fine, there was no need to remove it

[@Sunset4Semaphores]

Agreed!

[@zachfarr6457]

It's like the FRA doesn't believe in preserving history it was fine where it was but a least it got sent to a museum..
