New PRR Mock-UP Position Light Home SIGNAL at Hanna, Indiana. 5/25/23

Image
 These images were taken on May 25, 2023 at Hanna, Indiana, and document the mock-up PRR Position Light Signal that replaced the original eastbound home signal. This was the Pennsylvania Railroad's Chicago-Pittsburgh mainline that was once double-track and featured over 100 trains a day! Now it has been truncated to a single-track dark railroad that is owned by CSX and leased to G&W. This signal guards the diamond with former C&O (Perre Marquette) branch line from Wellsboro to La Crosse, which is  now owned by Indiana Boxcar,

Abandoned Railroad Corridor and Conrail GP15-1

Image
        Lebanon, Indiana is northwest of Indianapolis, and is where Conrail's ex-PRR "I&F" branch sails over the town on an embankment and over the abandoned right-of-way's of the Central Indiana Railroad and "Big Four." The Central Indiana Railroad was removed in the 1970's, and the Big Four in the late 1980's. The Big Four was severed south of here in 1976, and saw service under Conrail as a local route. Until 1973, Amtrak's JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY used this route to reach Indianapolis. ============================================================================= 🚗Dash Cam for Road Trips! https://geni.us/dashcamu 🔭 Scope For Train-spotting! https://geni.us/starscope 🗺️ Railroad Atlases! https://geni.us/rratlas ============================================================================= The Terre Haute Indianapolis & Eastern interurban also passed under the PRR.
