1977 shot at the west end of the big C&O yard at Russell, KY

Here’s a 1977 shot at the west end of the big C&O yard at Russell, KY (Russell is actually the town at the east end- Raceland is towards the west end, where the car shops were.  This throat is actually in Wurtland).   This is one of two original C&O signal bridges still in use in the area- the other is one block to the west, and is even neater as it has full aspects (not these limiting upper targets), both ways, on all three tracks. – Submitted by Fred Ripley
