Here is the first switch cut in for the Ridgely Project. It will connect the UP siding to the I&M mainline, with a left hand switch in the middle that will tie into No. 6 track in the yard. Anytime the UP wants to access the yard from the south end they will need permission from the I&M dispatcher to enter Shops Yard Limits, as the I&M switch will be just to the north of the new interlocking. Perhaps the UP has already come up with a creative solution to this potential problem. |
