Since this is a railroad signal it will cost plenty to replace.

PermalinkGuess the bad luck in this whole deal is that it must have been too dang hot for a few of those street bums to be begging for money at that intersection when that chunk of steel fell down where they stand on the sidewalk............

PermalinkWhy doesn't the city ban over-sized loads in the city? Make them take the backroads.

PermalinkWho would we count on to pepper our streets with potholes? It'd be like tearing down or renovating all these downtown vacant storefronts -- it'd ruin the city's ambience.
It just wouldn't be San Angelo if you couldn't knock out your car's alignment while admiring the plywood patchwork and broken windows.
