  • Tower 60, John Briggs (guest) wrote 18 years ago:
    A "Tower" in railroad terms is a control point used to manage the crossing of multiple railroad tracks. Towers are normally, but not always, buildings that house the controls to realign switches for the movement of trains. Tower 60 controlled all tracks coming into North Fort Worth. It is now computer & remote controlled. Also see http://www.towers.txrrhistory.com/060/060.htm

  • Tandy center Subway (closed August 2002, now destroyed), Matt J. McCullar (guest) wrote 18 years ago:
    In its last years, the Tandy Center Subway system was used not only to provide transportation for shoppers to get from the huge parking lot to the Tandy Center, but it was also used by Tarrant County jurors to park their cars for free and then ride at no cost to the courthouse. Today jurors park at LaGrave Field and ride the city bus for free to the courthouse.
