BNSF's Gavin Yard tower

BNSF’s Gavin Yard tower near Minot, ND is so high up it makes me think of an airport’s air traffic controller tower.

The Gavin Tower would built by BN predecessor GN.

And with the hump yard dismantled, it really stands out! I was on a ‘tour’ of it in the late 90’s and that is a lot of steps to walk up.
