Summary[edit]

Description

The Hoosier Valley Railroad Museum in North Judson, Indiana was given the opportunity by the Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad Company to acquire a very unique piece of railroad history--Grasselli Tower in East Chicago. The IHB decommissioned the tower during the later part of 2007 and promptly offered the tower to the HVRM. Grasselli was one of the last remaining railroad towers in Northern Indiana.

Grasselli Tower once stood along Kennedy Avenue in East Chicago, Indiana guarding the junction between the IHB, EJ&E, and B&OCT. More information about Grasselli Tower can be found at <a href="http://www.grassellitower.com/" rel="noreferrer nofollow">www.grassellitower.com/</a>.

Please make a donation to help restore the tower, if possible.

Also seen here is the Nickel Plate Road signal mast and a set of three searchlights.
