Is the line from Knoxville to Chattanooga signaled?  I spent sometime around the Willoughby diamond today and heard trains on the NS being given track warrents to places like "Sweetwater" etcc... 

If its not signaled....does anyone have a list of sidings etc...?

Thanks

Yep, Automatic Block Signals most of the way from West Sevier to Cleveland.

You'll have to look for K&O signals (Knoxville to Oakdale), and then look up 3rd District signals.   The Knoxville line connects to the 3rd district going South via Caney Creek (K&O)  to Strange (3rd).

Sorry, Grady, the signal list for the Knox. West End district is not online...yet.

I will get the West End District online tomorrow 4/16/08.  I am currently working on the Pittsburgh Div Signal list, and from time to time will take a break to do another list if needed (ie West End).

No rush Bill...I am actually heading back to Asheville tomorrow afternoon.  I should have asked about the list before coming over to Knoxville.  I will be back this way in a few weeks....so I could use it then.  Spent some time around the junction/diamond at Willougbhy the past few days, and managed to figure out where some of the signals were on both the L&N and the Southern.  Managed to catch seven CSX trains yesteday & one NS and caught four CSX today and one on the NS.....not bad for a few hours time.

Currently in Knoxville, but back in Asheville tomorrow afternoon.

Were you sitting at the NS/CSX Diamond in Knoxville yesterday?  I sat there a while then left for a while then came back and there was a car sitting there, backed up to the CSX line.  I think it was a small  tan colored car, but I couldn't really tell, because I was afraid to drive up too close.  Sooo, I just pulled in, saw the car, and turned around went back out.  I was afraid it might be a drug dealer or some other dangerous person...

The West End District is online under the Central Division Resources.

My fault for being lazy  at the keyboard.  I should have said ABS/TWC from West Sevier to Cleveland (or that general area) and CTC the rest of the way.  I suppose I did leave the impression that it was unsignaled past Cleveland which it is not.
