Coatesville, PA: Pennsy (CV) Tower and Freight House

(Satellite?)

This 19th Century image is worth noting even if I could not determine its location.

The handsome old CV Tower looks almost like a lighthouse. It was replaced by another structure in 1904 when the entire line was widened to four tracks.
