Clearly you haven’t seen the guy who put an entire B&O Searchlight signal from the Keystone subdivision in his backyard ;).

Trust me when I say the video you have presented is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to signal collecting.

I have a few in my yard, but I know a guy in IN that probably has 12-14 steam era signals in his yard (full height, too) and a guy in OH that has a half dozen, plus a caboose and a complete depot.
