| Darren Reynolds posted PRRs "Spruce" tower Spruce Creek, Pennsylvania "Spruce" tower Controlled movements in and out of Spruce Creek tunnels. PC Eng-2319 Passing "Spruce " tower on June 21, 1974. The odd thing about this tower is there's no windows up front ? Photo by: David P. Oroszi Bill Decker: I spent time in that tower. It wasn’t really large in size and the ctc board and the “strongarms” were on that side of the tower inside. Pretty much reverse of the others inside. |
This topo map quickly taught me where the tunnels were. (Lower-right corner)

It is obvious that the southern tunnel route was the original route because it avoided building two bridges. Since they have built the bridges, a satellite image shows that the straighter northern route is the one that is currently used.
