Josh Verheyen: Shame this junction is a lot less complex than it used to be. Full crossovers, 4 tracks funneled to 3 then back to 4 due to the daylit tunnel plus the original tunnel (which my understanding collapsed and closed during Hurricane Agnes). The majority of SW branch traffic was funneled via RG as well.
Remove one main from both these images and you'd have today's RADE interlocking. No East RG.
Daniel Kopack: THe way they they signaled 3 tracks (251,261, 251 ) is in my mind the best way to do it..

I included the tunnel that was daylighted.
1954/55 Greensburg Quad @ 24,000

And this is the daylighted tunnel.
