An eastbound B&O manifest runs parallel to Amtrak's Northeast Corridor at F Interlocking in Washington, DC.
Workers from Wolfe House & Building Movers go about their duties in Union City, Indiana, at the new site for the town's railroad interlocking tower. The tower was moved about a block west of its original site to a location in a city park known as Artisan Crossing. Closed in 1968, the tower once guarded the crossing of New York Central and Pennsylvania Railroad lines.
Four NS GP60s, led by the 7146, lead a work train West across the diamonds at 10th Street in Michigan City, IN.
Shortly after crossing the Kansas River Bridge, a westbound Kansas City Terminal, (Watco) transfer curves past KCT Tower 14 at Adams Street Interlocking in Kansas City, Kansas on June 7, 2013.
With KCT's colorful GP35R's leading, the 3855 and 3852, (both ex Southern Pacific), roll west with just one mile remaining before reaching their terminus at Mill Street Yard, hub for Watco operations in the Kansas City area.
4 tea spoons interlocking so that they will form a bridge between glasses.

The remains of former interlocking rodding run parallel to the now repositioned mainline as eastbound Amtrak passenger train #50, the Cardinal, races downgrade with a plume of smoke through the blooming mountainsides on the late morning of April 25, 2021, in Alleghany, VA.
Pistol grips, switch numbers, current gages, relays, model boards. Requisite hardware of a 20s-era GRS interlocking machine. Safe yet inefficient. Fascinating yet tedious. Obsolete. Lenox Tower's heart and guts, still alive but facing a fast-approaching murder at the hand of centralized traffic control. Tower closed 10/30/18. Structure demolished 5/17/21. A chapter of St. Louis railroad history...gone forever.

Dorset/Wiltshire border. Another day chasing the frost, this time a different area, the clouds didn't lift all morning so we had to make do with some low-contrast and quite graphical monotone compositions. I'm sure a learned geographer would know the correct term for this particular feature pictured, all I know it was a fantastic find - courtesy of Mr Spencer having spied it from the other direction. The subject matter was a challenge worth meeting even in the dwindling visibility - just a 'tiny' bump in contrast to bring out the details...
A former SP interlocking tower lives on in Luling, TX as a tire shop. Its always the last place you look... December 2013.
The Nittany & Bald Eagle Railroad operates the former PRR Bald Eagle Branch, which once had CTC. Although Conrail deactivated the signals in the early 80's when it tried to abandon the branch, many signals remained into the 2000's. But by 2021, I believe this bridge in Milesburg holds the last of the Pennsy Position Lights on the line.

La casetta centrale dà l'impressione di essere stata incastrata a forza tra le altre due costruzioni come se fosse stata messa li per sorreggerle.
Though the actual building is long gone, southbound NS freight train 123 grinds its way through the KD Tower, KY, interlocking with a particularity heavy train in tow on January 26, 2020.
More from the world inside a pocket watch!
I'm not feeling too well today, but I'll try and visit your streams later in the day...
See the swirls large on black! :)
Autorack train Q276-13 passing the shuttered tower at Greene Junction in South Connellsville, PA. It could be demolished by CSX at any time. I'm cutting way back on my coverage/photos of CSX now. Reason being, the train traffic on the Keystone Subdivision has dwindled to historically low levels. Five hours can be spent waiting to get one photo of one train. A monumental waste of time, especially since CSX is retiring most of their older interesting locomotives from service. I'd rather spend time in the woods.
C&NW suburban train No. 609 behind an E8 rolls through the Clinton Street Interlocking, in April 1982.
In the Dearborn Subway, a Forest Park-bound CTA Blue Line train swings through the curve underneath Congress Parkway, about to pass through La Salle Interlocking and make its stop at the La Salle station. The subway station here is below and adjacent to La Salle Street Station, terminal for Metra's Rock Island District.
An inbound C&NW Northwest Line scoot approaches Lake Street interlocking and the Chicago Passenger Terminal. Semaphores and double slip switches dominate this March 31st 1984 scene. Mark Ratzer photo.
Most of the Western Maryland relics along the Lurgan Subdivision are gone, making this old shack worth grabbing in a frame whenever I can. CSX train D773 is passing the old telephone hut that stands at the Conboy Interlocking near milepost 14. This used to be a signaled, automatic switch in decades past but with the decline in Lurgan Sub traffic it was no longer needed and it is now a hand-thrown switch to a little used siding.
the XX37 assault rifle.It is well known throughout the xx army for its range of compatiblity on any class.A widely used rifle by the xx army's different unit classes.Despite being such an old rifle,it is still being demanded to meet the requirements of the present combat.This is the 3rd upgrade of the XX37,which means that XX37 is the only rifle in the xx army to have a 3rd generation.
I have previously posted pics with various numbers of interlocking forks, often with an egg balanced on top (because I can).
I have prayed with the intensities just to add interest.

I rebuilt YO tower to include a train order semaphore in addition to its mechanical interlocking machine. It is equipped to operate both mechanical semaphores and electric signals at a 1x2 track diamond crossing. Previous incarnations were too complex to travel easily. This re-design aims to build a simple and transportable moc that will showcase the lego interlocking machine and mechanical semaphore signals
