Hi Moose,
I normally look at that if there is a horizon to be had, but, with
these, I'm not sure where to start. They certainly aren't worth a
heroic effort to make them into to something they really are not. :-(

Tullahoma owes its existence to the railroad connecting Nashville and
Chattanooga. Though the depot is closed now, it once did a bustling
business. During the Civil War, there was a field hospital here, and
a local cemetery contains the remains from both sides. The railroad
and depot divide Atlantic Street into parallel two-way streets,
making it one of the widest streets in the US, according to local
postcards. There is still a branch line coming into the main tracks,
along with sidings, so switching is a common hindrance to cross-town
traffic.
The switches are set manually:

Four-locomotive teams are not uncommon:

Straightening these up would ease the necks of those sensitive to
level. :-)
Up Right Moose
