Geometry Car
CSX's GMS-1 "Spirit of R.F. Silbaugh" splits the classic L&N searchlight signals at Flanagan Station south of Winchester, KY.
I spent the morning here, hoping to catch CSX's Office Car train passing these signals instead...but the geometry car will have to do.
According to the April 1965 B&O Railroad timetable for the Ohio-Newark Division/Cincinnati Terminal Sub-Division; Mr. R. F. Silbaugh was Assistant Division Engineer.
The car is a Plasser American geometry car, used to test aspects of the rails on the railroad.
