Foot-operated Hinged Railroad Sign Holder.
The ultimate in worker convenience! Your foot does all the work. No bending or stooping to raise or lower the sign.
The Mouse Trap spring-loaded sign holder is designed for active spur tracks where blue flag protection is needed. The OSHA Blue Flag Policy mandates that a blue sign by day and a blue light by night mark the track in advance of stationary rail cars.
The blue sign warns approaching switching crews to stop and obtain permission to pro­ceed any further on your siding. In a busy railyard, the blue sign may need to be raised and lowered frequently during the day.
The Mouse Trap installs on a tie with lag screws. The worker has only to step on the pedal and the holder falls down below the rails. To raise the sign holder, the worker steps on the roll pin just above the pedal and the holder rises up to be locked into upright position.
For flush rail install The Mouse Trap alongside on concrete. Powder-coated yellow finish. Sign plate sold separately.

Day and night, always on duty ... OSHA-mandated blue sign and solar-powered blue light provide round the clock warning that the spur track is off limits to traffic unless plant workers authorize entry. Hinged sign holder is spiked to tie and folds down flat below top of rails.

A new safety siren designed to give rail yard workers a warning if a car starts to move. The "Heads Up" attaches magnetically to the bearing cap of any freight car wheel. Should the car wheel turn more than 10 degrees in any direction, the battery powered sensor emits a powerful 90 dB two tone warble. The siren has a baffle to moderate the sound level, and an illuminated on-off switch. The NEMA4X housing is rain and dust proof and all hardware is corrosion resistant. The "Heads Up" weighs 1 pound and fits in the palm of the hand.

The signaler mounts in the hole on the car coupler head. Any movement of the car causes the 4" dia. amber lens to emit 60 - 90 flashes per minute of one million candle power brilliance. At the same time, the signaler horn sounds a powerful pulsing beep (97 dB at 4 feet). The flashing light and sound continue for 4 to 5 minutes after the car stops, and resume again if any further movement occurs. A low battery indicator is included. The signaler includes a rechargeable 12 volt battery with a 10 hour operating time.
