Not just PTC, but also converting the Reading line to signaled in both directions, for both tracks.  No more having to issue track authorities, when traffic into A'town starts to back up.

That signal at Fleetwood is less than 10 years old I think. Seems silly to remove it instead of adding to it.
Nice shots!
