There were many CD 133 W. Brookfield's used on every section of the Central of Georgia Railway telegraph line. There were two notable exceptions. The line between Fort Valley and Columbus, GA used very few CD 133's and the line from Macon, GA to Atlanta, GA used a very large number of the CD 133 signal styles. Most of my CD 133 are stored in boxes, but I think I had around 14 different embossings and color variants. There were the CD 133's which might have been reworked CD 131's (e.g. [260]) [id=80234530], an old heavy signal [230] well documented by David Wiecek's posts, a large later CD 133, and a smaller CD 133 also of later manufacture. See David Wiecek's posting for information on the older heavier version of the CD 133 [id=76187394]. My posting is of the newer light style embossed "W. Brookfield (arched) / 45 Cliff St. / N.Y. in a nice medium apple green color. Most of these were various shades of aqua with either no dates on the back dome or the Pat. / Jan. 25, 1870 dates.
