This B&O Railroad tower is located near US31 in Cementville, Indiana, just north of the Greentree Mall area—I believe it’s still standing. My Uncle Lawrence Ehringer—Dad’s brother-in-law worked in this tower midnight shift. About 1960—I was a wee lad—I spent the night in the tower with him. I expected him to spend the night raising gates or such. He counted  boxcars all night, sometimes making subtotals for  other railroads such as L&N, presumably for billing purposes. I loved it.
