  • Union Depot Tower Interlocking Plant
    Union Depot Tower Union Depot Tower (U.D. Tower) was completed in 1914 as part of a municipal project to improve rail transportation through Joliet, which included track elevation of all four railroad lines that went through downtown Joliet and the construction of a new passenger station to consolidate the four existing passenger stations into one. A result of this overall project was the above-grade intersection of 4 north-south lines with 4 east-west lines. The crossing of these rail lines required sixteen track diamonds. A diamond is a fixed intersection between two tracks. The purpose of UD Tower was to ensure and coordinate the safe and timely movement of trains through this critical intersection of east-west and north-south rail travel. UD Tower housed the mechanisms for controlling the various rail switches at the intersection, also known as an interlocking plant. Interlocking Plant Interlocking plants consisted of the signaling appliances and tracks at the intersections of major rail lines that required a method of control to prevent collisions and provide for the efficient movement of trains. Most interlocking plants had elevated structures that housed mechanisms for controlling the various rail switches at the intersection. Union Depot Tower is such an elevated structure. Source: Museum of the American Railroad Frisco Texas CSX Train 1513 moves east through the interlocking. July 25, 1997. Photo courtesy of Tim Frey Ownership of Union Depot Tower Upon the completion of Union Depot Tower in 1914, U.D. Tower was owned and operated by the four rail companies with lines that came through downtown Joliet.

    Major Tourist Attractions In El Paso by newsdesk Border Patrol Museum : Displays the history of the U.S. Border Patrol from the old west to the present. Displays of aircraft and vehicles used by the patrol, as well as surveillance equipment, confiscated items and more. This 10,000 square foot museum is next to the Wilderness Park Museum. Centennial Museum : Natural and cultural history museum focusing on the Southwest and Mexico. It features a wide array of exhibits, education programs, and research. Chamizal National Memorial and Park : This 300-acre park (55 acres on the US side), museum, and Los Paisanos Gallery pay tribute to the 1963 resolution that ended the dispute with Mexico over this section of borderland. One can stroll through the grounds and informal gardens, or enjoy the regularly featured shows at the 500-seat amphitheatre. The gardens contain replicas of some of Mexico&#39;s most historic sites, Uxmal, Chichen Itza, and Teotihuacan. Chapel San Elizario : This chapel was originally built as a fortified mission, "presidio," for the soldiers of its time. Although the original mission was moved several times due to flooding and other disasters, the structure that stands today is still an excellent example of late adobe-style architecture. The interior is graced by gilt pillars connected by archways, and overhead one can find a beautiful painted tin ceiling. Ciaudad Juarez : This historic Mexican city is located just across the Rio Grande and the US/Mexico border. There are many restaurants, bars, and interesting shops including the "mercado" (crafts mall). One can also visit the Cathedral of Our Lady of Guadalupe that dates back to 1659.

The building in classic Revival style is an architectural anomaly in the Southwest, yet it is an attraction in its own right. Today, the home by Paul Garland houses the El Paso Historical Society office and guests are encouraged to visit and learn more about why this man was so important to the city's people, not just in politics, construction and other endeavors, but in ecological preservation as well.

The station was erected in 1906 and placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975. Over those last 70 years, the station gradually fell into disrepair until the city restored the entire structure in the 1980s.
