Bryan Ohio CN crossing

Unread post by Notch 8 »

Was there a tower in Bryan Ohio where the CN crossed the NYC ? Never have seen pictures of the diamonds when they were in place, When was the diamond pulled ?

I believe it was called DV Tower. I don't know when it was torn down though, sorry.

The diamond was probably pulled out around Conrail Day ( I think north of town was gone before south of town) and the interlocking at CP 341 was taken out in 1990.

Last train north of Bryan aside from Jackson to Cement City was actually under PC in 1975. The line was torn out in 1976 though Hudson, Prattville, Waldron, , Alvordton, West Unity etc.
