Does anyone have any photos of this tower with enough definition that 
the bricks could be counted for dimensions?

I have a couple of photos by the late Dr. Drake from a past issue of
the Wabash RR HS banner magazine. Though he was thoughtful enough to
photograph all four sides, the definition of these B&W photos isn't
good enough to count the bricks even under enlargement.

The Wabash had four of these brick towers that I'm aware of and this
one appears to have had the largest footprint. Though I am not
modeling Jacksonville, my model interlocking will have a lot of
levers (40-50) so it appears this tower would be the most desirable
to model. I also have an ulterior motive as the Wabash Annual meeting
is coming up next month including a modeling contest?

Thanks in Advance
