A friend of mine and fellow railfan was driving by the gravel pit on Route 20 in Westfield and saw a new signal tower up. The signals are still sideways to the track like they are not yet in service.

Any ideas on what these might be? I thought this section was all Cab signals?

Any info would be greatly appreciated

Those signals are for a new set of cross-overs,the new CP105.

How's the rest of the project going P? Have built a temporary bridge for the tracks out by CP 107 yet?

No temporary bridge at 107 yet.

harleyfiremedic, the B&A has cab signals and wayside signals at all the CP's. In other words there are no ABS waysides in the cab signal territory.

So far no temporary bridge at Cp107. Most of the activity has been to install a new lead for those customers on the north side of the main. It looks like the local crew will be shoving in from the east end instead of the west. hows Delaware, CSX Con.?
