I have recreating c.1960 the maps. Currently at MP25-26 east of DIVIDE, see below.

Questions: 1. The westbound signal just west of Nicholai St. What was the signal number?
2. Emery indicates the low home signal by the Section House (south of Heitz Pl. was there prior to 1951. Did it exist in 1960 prior to the Grade Elimination Project?

Thanks!

1. Home signal 1
2. That dwarf signal was 3 but it and the wye track were removed sometime in 1960, I don't know the exact date. It looks like that dwarf signal goes back to the beginning! My 1912 plan has it!
