I thought that too, but I never checked to see how the placement of the signal lenses was on the old H & M. Ihe red in the middle and yellow on the bottom was definitely characteristic of the old IRT signals. BMT and IND had the yellow above the red. |

I agree that it looks like an IRT signal physically, but what threw me was the number plate (definately an interlocking with the "X" but only a single head with no lower indication. Wouldn't be an H&M from the tunnels, they were weird with multiple upper and lower indications. You might be rightF-N |

BMT heads did not have yellow on the bottom.BMT did not use name plates "RD36/X" as shown. BMT used almost ZERO US&S heads, and that's a US&S signal head. |

I have the SAME BMT GRS SIGNAL HEAD in my collection..the lenses in this case were REVERSED...per the IRT Configurations. The ID Plate appears to be that of PATH.WE-44 |

STRIKE THAT..the lenses are smaller...you are probably correct. A USS Signal with outdoor visors...it looks like a signal from PATH.(which used the IRT configurations) |

Yeah, since PATH was entangled with the PRR, even the newer stuff was US&S. There just wasn't any GRS on the property -The only equipment on record that was GRS on the Macadoo's was the original interlocker at 34th/6th. |
