Fairbanks Trainmaster-class engines being equipped with cab signals. I saw
one engine thusly equipped, and she was in the dead line at Shaffers
Crossing in the mid-1970s. The cab signal was made by US&S and had three
aspects: green, yellow and red. It was mounted on the engineman's side,
just to the left of the front window.

engines were equipped with cab signals for use at the Lamberts Point Coal
Hump.

question again... Anyone have information about these engines? How did the
cab signals work? What engines were equipped.
