Everyone, On one of the other lists I read, there has been a discussion of methods railroads used to mark the fouling points on sidings. Apparently other RRs used painted tie ends, "FP" signs, etc. Did the DL&W or EL use such a mark? If it makes a difference I am most interested in what was in practice in 1975. Thanks! Jeff Mutter Jeff Having never seen or heard of any type of marker I believe the Lackawanna relied on common sense when it came to clearance points on switches. Erie sidings often had cement clearance posts standing upright at the clearance point. Bob ------------------------------
