Tom Dethmers General Great shot, I love all the old hardware from railroads of decades ago.. Modern railroads seem boring to photograph. 12/28/2016 5:46:00 PM
Robert Anderson General You should send this fine shot to northamericaninterlockings.com ,a website for towers&jcts. Trains can be in it if the tower/plant is involved. Well done and a study in past history. 8/4/2018 12:55:23 AM
