Q182 prepares for a looong wait |
| Description: |
He was following 3 northbounds up from Greenwood. He ended up having to take the siding at Ora whil} the others got to go on to Roebuck to meet a southbound. Its times like this when the Kilgore siding could really come in handy and its probably vhy CSX is upgrading it now! He ended up waiting here for a couple of hours before proceeding north |

New CTC at the S end of Ora Siding |
| Description: |
Perhaps the oddest of the new CTC installations is here at Ora. The N end of the siding will have a spring switch (installed 5-7 years ago) while the south end will have CTC. This will be the termination of a stretch of CTC between Irby and Ora -- about 7 miles or so. Note the northbound signal only has 1 head. My guess is either an approach or restricting will be displayed to indicate movements into the siding. At the time this photo was shot, the signals had been erected, but power switch has not been installed here. This may be my last photo of the old switch stand here |

| Description: |
After waiting here for a couple of hours, Q693 finally gets to head south. You can see the new CTC signals installed here at S Ora. This will be the beginning of a stretch of CTC extending between here and Irby -- about 5-7 miles or so. Those old block boards will be a memory within a few months |

N End Ora Signal |
| Description: |
This used to be a 2 light Spring switch (SS) indicator. Its been replaced with a 3 light signal and the SS marker has been replaced with this red C. I guess is some sort of 'combo' signal, acting as a APP marker for S Ora, and a switch position indicator?? |

Southbound coal splits the signals at I-385 |
| Description: |
The mast signal on the right was recently installed. Prior to this, the signal head was mounted on the mast on the left. Due to signal upgrades in the area, they decided to install a new mast signal to accomodate more indications. Keep in mind that these signals was just activated less than a year ago and they are already upgrading them! |
