Lovingly preserved as part of a park display, is the historic Tower B-12 in downtown franklin Park Illinois, near Chicago's O'Hare International Airport. Tower B-12 was used as an active interlocking junction tower into the late 1990's.After it was closed...it was moved from the Indiana Harbor belt / Canadian Pacific crosstracks site, to this park setting about 6 blocks west. This parklike setting is along franklin Avenue, parralel to the Canadian Pacific Railroad's former Milwaukee Road mainline.
