Not that it makes a difference in this case - even north of 23rd st there is no cross over. The train would have to pull into the 30th St spur and then cross over. The interesting part of this incident is that if the story is accurate, then the T/O pulled into 5 track and then the tower operator gave the T/O the home signal to leave without normaling the switch on A3. This sent the train back north on A3 which is the southbound express. Since the train had the line-up back into canal, the home signals at the crossover south of canal had to allow reverse traffic. Why? Also, there was supposed to be a supervisor in that tower whom I suspect is not a happy camper today. |
