Seaboard Double track signals!
Title:  Seaboard Double track signals!
Description:  It was cool to find these old SAL double track signals still guarding the South end of the joint NS/CSX double track between Cary and Raleigh. I don't think there is another set of signals like this on the SAL until you get to Florida

Boylan interlocking
Title:  Boylan interlocking
Description:  Looking northward (CSX), Eastward (NS). This is the north end of the joint NS/CSX double track. Since this double track is still 251 style, there is a pot signal guarding movements against the direction of traffic. This will soon change as evidenced by the new signal being constructed

349 comes through Boylan Jct
Title:  349 comes through Boylan Jct
Description:  Here we see westbound NS Train #349 coming off of the ex-SAL line. Once the trains leave the ex-NS Raleigh yard, they cross over to the CSX and then roll onto the joint line here at Boylan. If there were a connection track on the left side of this photo, this maneuver would not be necessary.
