Tom I think you mean to say from West to East: You approached West OV, where it went from double to Single track. West OV was about a shot half mile west of the tunnel. You went through the tunnel on Single track. You then went back to Double track at Ottisville, on the East side of the tunnel. It was double track then and now to Howells, Jct.
