Blue Island Jct. Tower - a photo on Flickriver

            GTW's Blue Island Jct. Tower controlled the busy interlocking of the B&OCT, GTW, and IHB railroads in its namesake city. Although no longer an open train order office, the tower survives as a CSX MofW office. CSX obtained CN's Elsdon Sub a year or two ago in exchange for mainline trackage in Memphis.
