Glen,
Lincoln Division ETT #68 effective January 2, 1949 says in the
special instructions:
LINCOLN:
Move at restricted speed over crossover switches, Nos. 1-2-3 and
4 tracks, near subway, Lincoln Passenger Yard, and know that they
are properly set.
Centralized Traffic Control in effect on both freight tracks
between Baird Interlocking limits and Hall Interlocking limits.
Rule 93 not in effect between west end of Baird Interlocking
limits and east end of Hall Interlocking limits. Maximum speed
limit 25 M.P.H.
Omaha Division ETT #72 effective January 2, 1949 says in notes
for the Pacific Junction to Lincoln Subdivision that:
Centralized Traffic Control in effect between Pacific Jct. and
Plattsmouth; M.P. 41.03 east of of Greenwood and M.P. 49.10 west
of Waverly and between interlocking limits of Baird Tower and Hall
Tower on freight tracks.
I have Wymore Division #61 ETT effective February 29, 1948 and it
says nothing about the CTC.
My next Wymore Division ETT is #64 effective September 25, 1949
and it states in Special Instructions:
LINCOLN:
Centralized Traffic Control in effect on both freight tracks
between Baird Interlocking limits and Hall Interlocking limits.
Rule 93 not in effect between west end of Baird Interlocking
limits and east end of Hall Interlocking limits. Maximum speed
limit 25 M.P.H.
Hope this helps.

I am trying to pin down
the date that CTC was installed at Lincoln on the two freight
mains between Baird Tower and Hall Tower. It was sometime
between 1948 and 1951.
If anyone has a copy
of either Lincoln Division ETT's 68, 69, 70 or 71, or Wymore
Division ETT's 63, 64 or 65, then you would be able to
help answer my question. After CTC was installed, the
following note appears: "Centralized Traffic Control in effect
on both freight tracks between Baird Interlocking Limits and
Hall Interlocking Limits. Rule 93 not in effect between west
end of Baird interlocking Limits and east end of Hall
Interlocking Limits. Maximum speed limit 25 M.P.H." This
note either will or won't appear in the above timetables.
On Lincoln Division
ETT's the note should be found on the last page under SPECIAL
INSTRUCTIONS -- 2. USE OF TRACK: LINCOLN:
On Wymore Division ETT's
the note should be found on page 14 under SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
-- 5. USE OF TRACK: LINCOLN: (after NAPIER and far down
in the notes for Lincoln).
The note might appear on
Omaha Division ETT's, but I don't know which page.
Thanks for any
assistance.
