Hi, Here is a photo of my CCRR 1872 Harp switch stand. CCRR is Colorado Central Railroad. This is smaller in size than a standard gauge stand of the same vintage as I have drawings of a standard gauge UP stand. There was discussion about it on this forum in August 2006. You can search and find everything but the picture.
I have a C&TS Harp stand that was made and sold by the Friends it is one of five made. It is larger than the CC stand and about the size of the UP drawings.

Sometimes I sit and wonder how come I am not in a mental institution then I take a good look around at everyone else and realize, maybe I already am!!!
