Tulsa Interlocking

  Yes, this terrible tangle of tracks really did exist! The Tulsa interlocking plant was the crossing of four of Tulsa’s railroads, the Frisco, MKT, Midland Valley and Santa Fe. It allowed three of these railroads entrance to the Tulsa Union Depot, which was west of the interlocking. Midland Valley only crossed here and did not access the Tulsa Union Depot trackage.

The Santa Fe yard was where you are now standing and the Santa Fe freight depot was just beyond this module’s skyboard.
