Jim,  As Stephen said all the signals are "Bagged" as I call them, with
canvas tied around the tops of all of them.  The line sees periodic runs by
the Cincinnati and Eastern, mostly to east Batavia(Afton), but I believe
now and then they make runs as far as Winchester, and perhaps to Peebles,
but that may not be the case.  East from Peebles to Portsmouth I do not
believe has seen a train in years.
  I have shot a lot of video over the years, including some hiking into a
few of the remote ones on Batavia Hill, and east of Williamsburg, but no
still photos.  Our 2 Peavine videos have a lot of signals video-taped
between 1992 and 2001 mostly.  A lot of the places I think you have on your
list re remote spots that were not easily obtainable.  I aspect some might
have a few of them, but there is likely not one source.

PS I guess I got the last run of 611 on the Peavine in Sept 1994.  Sad to
think it may never run this was again to Cincinnati.
