The new signal cantilevers being installed. This is just RR East of Carkeek Park.
Looking RR West from the beach at Carkeek Park, we see the new "Control Point Blue Ridge," with the North Beach neighborhood behind it,. The pair of new crossovers, with high-rail removal point between them, are between the two visible new cantilever signal towers. The North Beach community beach access crossing through the middle of the control point via a new set of steel stairs down from the bluff and a set of wood stairs down to the beach. The Blue Ridge neighborhood and Blue Ridge community beach access are both out of the picture to the left.
Looking further RR East from Carkeek we see a pair of the classic signals such as have characterized this stretch for many years. I think I will enjoy the more dramatic appearance of the new cantilevers more than I will miss the older signals.
