Great job! Glad you guys could get her to it's former glory! Really glad the community fought to keep the signal instead of just removing it. Just think if it wasn't for the community it would probably be recycled into a bean can.
That's Cool How It Still Works When Hooked Up Like That! (Idk How You all Did That But It's Cool) Plus, The Bell on It Sounds Different Than What It Used To Sound Like Before
This Wig wag #20 is the last remaining vertical standing wig wag and it sister wig wag to stand in it’s original spot thinks where Richmond was founded
I can not wait to see these back in operation someday! I photographed them on May 4th w/o their banners. Hopefully they will come back again soon! Thank you for all of your hard work!
One of two ways... either turning the gong (hole is off center), or by adjusting the hammers. That adjusts the loudness. As for pitch, I don't believe that can be adjusted. Just depends on how the bell was cast. I think...

Are the wig wags being hooked up or just restored?
They are hooked up for special occasions
how do you change the pitch of the bell?

they kept it reason maybe it was on the middle they could put the crossing on the sides make it more safe
Hi Dan
It’s not wigwag it’s wig wag
The Magnetic Signal Company builder's plate on these wigwags says "Magnetic Wigwag Flagman".
