TRACK DIAGRAM

All main tracks are shown, along with most switches within interlockings, and other tracks used by main line Amtrak and freight trains. Not shown are hand operated industrial switches.

Information is subject to change, and is based on observations, along with information from employee timetables, and Google satellite imagery.

The following colors are used to indicate types of operation:
BLUE - manual interlocking
RED - centralized traffic control (CTC) or bidirectional signals
GREEN - automatic block signals
BLACK - unsignaled

Thin lines across tracks indicate signals. In CTC or bidirectional signal territory, signals usually exist for both directions at all locations, except at interlockings where the signals usually are only in the direction entering the interlocking.
