I found these signs which I found out they are A.R. Fergusson model train metal & tin railroad signs. They were manufactured in Buffalo, NY (couple hours from me, I'm in Syracuse NY). I know they are fairly old and can't find much info on them. Wanted to make sure I list them correctly. I don't like to put out any information that I am not sure of. I see that alot on other websites, particularly on eBay. You find a lot of people that copy other people's listings instead of looking up the correct info. Or that have no interest. To me it is laziness. I have had others copy mine and use my stock numbers ...lol like it is part of the item. Anyways, I am going to post the photos. If anyone knows anything about them, please feel free to post it to me. Thanks in advance.

Yeah I would like to know too. I've never seen the likes.

EDIT: From the ebay listing ...

Vintage Antique A.R. Fergusson Model Train Railroad Signs Signals Accessories 4pcs (#7114). Lot includes O Gauge Railroad crossing, Semaphore signal, clock & Railroad Crossing Danger Sign. All are made of metal and tin. They are all painted, but show wear & the smaller crossing appears to missing a part. They also show some oxidation. These are produced by A.R. Fergusson Toy Company in Buffalo, NY between 1922 - 1927. They are all original with G style stands. See pictures.
