Reply to "Sunday Scenic Showcase December 4, 2016"

At some point, I will be building a model of this tower. I recently finished restoring a switchman shanty for the Huber Breaker Preservation Society in Ashley Pa where this tower was located. I want to make a diorama of the shop yards and main street where the tower was located. There was another tower a short distance west at Franklin Junction. These towers were built in the fifties, and only lasted into either the late seventies or early eighties. I'm not really sure. The worker in the yard tower would relay swithcing instructions to the switchman at the shanty location by phone, and later by a two way speaker system.
