Delray Tower is Detroit, Michigan's busiest railroad Hot Spot, this sight is located at Delray Junction on the south side of Detroit and along Interstate 75 just north of the River Rouge. Seven railroads are featured in this program including: Conrail, Norfolk Southern, CSX, Grand Trunk, Canadian Pacific, Canadian National and Amtrak. Shot in the 1990's, this video features this busy bottleneck that was used to funnel through 60-90 trains per day as they ran in and out of Detroit. Delray interlocking Tower consists of a grade level crossing of the double-track Norfolk Southern (ex Wabash) and CSX (ex Chesapeake & Ohio) that crossed and joined the double-track Conrail (ex New York Central) mainline. The train action consists of mainline freights, locals, intermodal, coal, and transfers, plus light power moves. The 1990's diesel power consists of lots of standard cab GE, ALCO, and EMD's along with early widecabs. Witness Delray Tower's non-stop train action as the sights and sounds are j |
