Thanks for the photo update, Ron. 

 

I wish I knew more about operations. Not only have the two crossovers been
moved together, they are now in the opposite direction. There must be some
reason for that.

Two high-speed crossovers have been installed on the Shenandoah line just
north of the Roanoke Shops Foundry building. The new crossovers and their
new signals are marked as McKibben.

Two older crossovers on the line have been removed. Crossover 65 next to the
East End Locomotive shops and Crossover 69 which was north of the Orange
Avenue overpass.

The new McKibben is midway between the old crossovers.
