L&N Main Line Bisected by Southern Railway Main Line, 1960

This picture was taken in the same area as O-6 but from a different angle, from under the 1st Avenue Viaduct. The track has a very sharp curve. The gate and house where the cars are in the center and right center is part of the Southern Railway The cement post at the left is part of the First Avenue Viaduct. On engines moving north the engineer can see only one or two car lengths ahead at this point. With the hooded type engine he has to rely on the fireman completely at this spot for the signals as to whether the tracks are clear. There are 4 tracks used to store cars running parallel with the main lines.
