Crossing Over at Oakland Tower  Contributor's Pick!       
The order board is out for an opposing move. Of course there can't be one but the interlocking was set up so the opposing move order board would be out for any crossover.

Robert Anderson General Excellent operational shot of what appears to be No 21 crossing back over from the EB to WB mains likely around a Milw frt not yet in the clr down at St.Paul "Dunn" recieving yd on the right(river) side. There was a D-R order involved issued and delivered at Newport. as indicated by Marty the EWD train order signal is at 31(stop). Another great memory Marty. 7/17/2018 3:50:36 PM
