Title:  TPW 1539
Description:  After about another hour of waiting, CERA keyed up NS Dispatch and told them they were ready to cross at CP 78. I went down to the next road crossing east of there to shoot it coming by two of the PLs that still guard CP 78. The one on the right is an extremely rare pedestal signal. This is one of only three left active in the United States.

Title:  TPW 1539
Description:  The box car is left behind and the train continues forward. After this move the crew would take the train across South Street and tie down for the day. While I would have liked to have seen the full line between Kokomo and Hartford City, Ill just have to leave that portion for another day. Still, a great day trackside exploring some new territory! A good way to spend my birthday!

Title:  TPW 1539
Description:  For my 19th Birthday I decided to try to cover a shortline that I havent had the best of luck on yet; the Central Railway of Indiana. I was informed by a Facebook Friend that they would be starting the day in Kokomo around 9 AM today, so I decided to get up around 7 and make the drive to Kokomo. Sure enough, a train with a solo long hood forward TPW GP15 was preparing to leave heading toward Marion. Finally luck had come my way! The first shot I took was at the iconic tilt signal in Kokomo.

Description:  The train street runs along Madison St. in Kokomo. It is a shame that Kokomo has lost a majority of its railroad traffic. This would have been a crazy town to photograph trains in in Pennsylvania Days.
