Dix tower was at MP 89.4 (miles from Cincinnati) very close to the town of Acton. The double track went to single here and there were two sidings here as well; one on each side of the main. It was a typical NYC(Big Four) tower that stood on stilts. Bob Larkey Collection
Nice looking tower, Roger. It is interesting how small towns got their names and how many others exist. I would not have guessed an Acton existed on the Big Four. For our family, Acton was a town south of Palmdale in California. Thanks for more history.
Looking on Google Earth - a mile or so Southeast of 'downtown' Acton there is a Dix Road. Many locations get named for roads that they are near.
