CP at the North Main CP

On a cloudy morning, CP 8930 rolls eastward past the N Main St control point on the Freight Main of UP's Houston Sub near Downtown Houston. This hold signal is used to stop westbound trains from blocking crossings just ahead if there isn't a route lined past the following control point (Niles Jct).

 

And like the CPs at Niles Jct and Chaney Jct ahead, the former SP searchlights here at the North Main Hold have replacements up and ready to go into service.
