I recently rode the CSSSB/South Shore from Ogden Dunes to Randolph Street.
Full Double track CTC is going in, from Emerson to Kensington.
Both mains will be fully signaled for bi-directional movement at full speed.
As part of this, a lot of the odd switchwork is being ripped out. Odd little pockets and such, long unused, old freight leads.
All the spring switches are also being removed, replaced with ether CTC interlockings, or electric locked switches. The State Line plant on the CSSSB is getting a lot of new power switches for the yard leads to the main, as well as the crossovers there. All of the double crossovers are getting CTC interlockings.
Gone to arte thw SS dwarves, many are all ready covered with bags.
Hard to belive, a CTCed interurban!
