Crossing Over at Division St. "Strong Arm" Tower (see descripton below) in 1964 |
| Description: |
Note the rods at the base of the tower going toward and away from the camera and under the tracks. These rods are moved by four foot levers in the tower by the towerman (the job title is leverman) and in turn the rods move/change the signals and move the track switches. Some of the rods travel a long distance to the switch and are hard to pull, thus the term strong-arm plant--strong back too! The tower and its track work are called an interlocking plant meaning the towerman can not set the switches and signals such that one train would run into another. If the towerman sets a route for a train through the plant and then has to set another route for it or take the route from it because another train will move first, he has to run a timer first to assure affected trains have time to stop before he can move set a new route. |

Rock Island GP7 1221 |
| Description: |
Not quite your average GP7, Rock Island 1221 was rebuilt 'in kind' by EMD in 1961 with two subtle signs shown here, including a forward mounted fuel filler and standard 1600 gallon fuel tank, as opposed to the 800G tank as originally delivered. It's shown here at Liberal in 1973 in maroon with silver stripes. Scanned from a very wrinkled print. |

CRI&P GP7 1254 |
| Description: |
CRI&P GP7 1254, Lincoln, Nebraska, October 1963, photo by Dick Rumbolz, Chuck Zeiler collection. Built in July 1952 (c/n 16463) on EMD Order 5136, it was rebuilt to GP7R 4526 and during 1981 it became C&NW 4180. Even at this date it appears to have seen some minor rebuilding. The fuel tank appears to be a non-standard shape. |
