Now available for sale is the somewhat rare green base variation of the 151 operating semaphore. This signal is assumed to have been manufactured for a portion of 1947 and is hard to find in today's market.

This particular signal is complete, all-original and nothing is broken nor damaged on the signal. The semaphore arm is the early variation with the flat-face red and green rubber lens. Additionally, the light does illuminate, the signal solenoid does work properly and the arm goes to the lower position without any issues. However, the arm does not raise back up and frequently gets stuck on a 45 degree angle when trying to return to the green position. If you're handy at troubleshooting semaphores, this might be an interesting weekend project. Otherwise, the base and pole are not damaged, but do have signs of usage.
