I spent more time than I care to admit looking on a satellite map for the location of this tower. I could not find an embankment, road and residential area next to the tracks. And the track diagram is not consistent with the tracks in this topo map. DL&W was the southern route with the railyards. A silver lining is that I found the depot and freight house while looking for the tower.
