This pair of modern bow handle switch stand handles crossing each other struck me as in interesting study in railroad geometry worthy of an image. I imagine any veteran railroader would have little issue reading which lever to throw for which track, but I could certainly see this be a bit confounding for a green new hire brakeman! This is right behind the North Bennington depot at the south end of the little ed Rutland Yard located along the modern day Vermont Railway's B&R Sub mainline. One stand controls the turnout for the two customer sidings at Whitman's Feed while the other controls the switch between the main and the south leg of the wye (not visible outside the bottom of the frame). And to add to the confusion just out of sight to the left is one more stand controlling the turnout between the main and the lead to the two Whitman sidings.
All in a day's work....
