Bernie Feltman	General	Fred, in lots of applications, 100 feet would just get you to a connecting joint. That is an advanced form of primitive engineering that still fascinates me	10/12/2010 1:06:50 PM

Fred Stuckmann	General	Sterling Tower in Ohio had a wye and their switches were many hundreds of feet away from the tower. Thanks.	10/12/2010 7:29:40 PM

Howard Castellucio	General	About 15 or so yrs ago I got to put my back and legs into a cpl of these levers at Alexis twr. They were still connected to the B&O spur into the steel scrapers. Good God almighty!! Thats all I have to say!	10/14/2010 9:52:48 AM

Fred Stuckmann	General	Yup, thank you.	10/14/2010 10:29:31 AM

aka Armstong. An operator would line switches with these levers manually, often times 100 or more feet away.
