Dependable Sentinel

MRL(Montana Rail Link)bungalow at West Plains,MT controlling the westbound control signals for the Plains siding and main,and the west end switch on the Plains siding.Also appears to be a radio link for the MRL Dispatcher.Wife and I had dinner in Plains but we had to hit this spot on the way back to Quinns as I have a collection of Station Board photos-this was a new one.
Joe O,

I like that shot a lot!!!

I believe that antennea is used for ATCS on the MRL.. I believe that it also has instructions programmed into it to align the east switch of Plains per dispatcher!!
