The N&W wigwags were not suspended above the road, but were on upright pedestals either on the roadway centerline or on the right side of the road.

LuthierTom, I did a Google search and found pictures of the prototype but nothing as far as a model goes. You just might have to kitbash one. Good luck, Mike.
