Why was the color of the O scale signal bridge changed to silver?  Yes, I know some railroads paint their signal structures with aluminum paint, but just about all the signals I've ever seen personally have been black.

If anyone's counting votes, I'd like to request a black version of the O signal bridge.

I could be wrong, but those look like the same Plasticville repro parts sold by Tandem Associates.

I keep looking for Bachmann to announce some of the older Plasticville items from the 50's that they have not remade in quite a while such as the Hardware store.  I would think they would still have most of that tooling but maybe it has degraded. 

Bach Man can you share with us if there is a possibility that we can get these older items back in the line again?

To that list I'd like to add the O scale switch tower.  It seems that Bachmann still offers the HO version, but not the O switch tower.  This was a popular item during the postwar era, and those of us who collect and/or run vintage Lionel would like to put then on our layouts.
