Marion Union Station. The connection the yard and Indy Line runs off to the left and MD Cabin is down by the most distant overhead signals.
OK,I was thrown off by the close up...Great shot!
I was only in Marion twice last year-I railfan in other areas for a change..Did they add a Cantilever?

Ralph,Back in the days of CR I had seen as high has 4 trains on those diamonds..2 on CSX and 2 on NS while a Westbound CR train held clear.Talk about noise..Imagine 4 trains banging across those diamonds at the same time..The echo was deafening.Those were the days.
