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 |
