I'm curious where the tower is located to control the switches at Howard Beach. The A line is using the 4 tracks south of the station to turn trains and also one track up to Aqueduct as an equipment storage track. Was there a temporary tower put there or is it controlled from the tower at the Rockaway Blvd. junction?
