I presume you mean the Indiana Transportation Museum (ITM) and not the Illinois Railway Museum (IRM)????

I've asked both here and on AOTT and the answer is basically that everybody is worrying about the larger items right now.

It has also been stated--and take it with the same grains of salt as other such pronouncements--that, since the signals in question are in dismantled form and easily transported, that the INDIANA TRANSPORTATION Museum intends to relocate them to their new location.

I'm also certain that should they still be on the affected property by the 11th, the various parties that have been saving other artifacts will happily add them to their pickings if they are permitted to do so, for the same reasoning--they're easy to grab and not easy to replace.

Forget the signals, what about the world class CA&E collection???

Seriously I am very OK with mods just correcting this when it happens.
