Re: New Lake State RR Video
Nice video. Looks familiar except for missing Main 2 between N. Kearsley and Atwood. His commentary regarding the closing of Kearsley tower is not correct, however. The tower was closed in 1972 -- not 1980 and had nothing to do with the GTW. It was closed after the Main 2 was added that year to increase capacity and eliminate track through downtown Flint. With the upgrade to track and signals, control of North and South Kearsley was made semi-automatic (approach operated) when signals were coded from our CTC machine in Saginaw.
