This photo speaks volumes. Hiawatha,F/E units,double track ABS/CTC(controlled at Chesnut St tower panel). Searchlight signals and with a Grade marker plate on WWD numberplated signal. This meant because of 2.2% grade here, to avoid stalling,trains could pass a red at restricted speed W/O stopping. Most of this gone. Thanks Mike.
