Also note the "Bomber box" to the left of the tower with windows cut in. This was a box put on a flat to carry a B-29 fuselage in WWII, after the war they were pulled off and set on the ground. See Bulletin 15. Fits the recent "plane train" thread.

That was the Q's/BN's Grow Tower.  Possibly the subject of a future layout for me.  Lots of great memories at that crossing.
