Dan Poitras gave us this view of the Tama, Iowa tower on July 5, 1977. You can see the C&NW depot in the distance to the right. After crossing the C&NW, the Milw track curved to the left and then back around heading east through town by its own depot near U.S. 63. You should be able to see where the C&NW Conrad / Eldora branch came in and crossed the Milw behind the tower sign. I scanned and edited this image from an original Kodak Kodachrome slide.
