Where was Vandalia tower in Indiana on the Wabash? Protected a crossing with the PRR. Image is of a Michigan RR Club excursion 4-12-59. Photog unknown
Eric Reinert Yes, 4th District, at Lakeville, IN. This trip was written about in Victor Bairds book on the 4th Dist. This trip also went up the NJ I&I at Pine.
It is always a bit of a challenge to find where a junction was when both railroads have been abandoned for a while. But if you zoom out a bit, you can still see tree lines where the routes were. The yellow line was the Wabash and the blue line was the Pennsy.
