Regarding the kit from this company:

http://thenarch.com/products/new-haven-tower-n

It says it's a standard design, but was that "standard" all over the New Haven system or just on certain districts?

Don't have recent photos but it looks a lot like the NH tower at the Cape Cod Canal Rd bridge.

The classic NH "Pagoda" tower. There's one along I-95, in New Rochelle, NY., I believe.

Not to be a wiseass, but do a Google Image search for "New Haven Railroad Towers" and a bunch of images, with locations pop up. If you've ever traveled along I-95 in NY and Connecticut, you've seen at least one of them still standing.

Thanks for the Google tip! Being an old geezer I'm rarely thinking of the "new Age" way of doing things. Duh.  :oops:
