Not Having a Ball - 2

A different view of the "Last Known Operating Ball Signal in New England". One ball raised, allowed the B & M pass over the diamond, two balls raised, allowed the MEC to cross. One ball stuck in the lowered position, and one ball missing, allows the weeds to grow and the rails to rust. The ball signal is in rough shape, with rusted and derailed cables, and a missing ball. Hard to find any evidence of rail activity at this once busy crossroad.
