Morgan Run, OH: Junction Tower: Pennsy (Panhandle) vs Nickel Plate/W&LE

(Satellite, it was in the northwest quadrant according to Gary's comment below.)

Darren Reynolds posted four photos with the comment:

This tower is no longer standing
Bill Burge: Working TV-3 on the last train west before the Panhandle was closed, I thought we were coming off the rails through the interlocking with that old ‘39 hogger!
Greg Davis: Was this located on the southeast corner of AOS property?
Gary Dutcher: Greg Davis North side of Panhandle # 2 track just west of N&W track.

[This shows that the tower was a little west of the crossing.]

It appears that a couple of shortlines now have their headquarters here.
