About the Concept

RS Tower is located in a small midwestern town, and controls the crossing of two main lines. The busiest of these is a CTC controlled main line that goes from single to double track at the interlocking, the quieter consists of a single track that winds its way through town. There are local industries on both routes, served from a small yard that is served by both companies.
