Featured at this museum are two interlocking towers that have been saved and are undergoing preservation and restoration:

Haley Tower and Spring Hill Tower

Situated at the grade crossing of CSX Transportation's CE&D Subdivision and the former Conrail St. Louis Line in Terre Haute, Indiana, Haley Tower was one of the very last manned interlocking towers in the Midwest. Once a common sight along US railroads, these towers are now a dying breed, and precious few of them have been preserved. Fortunately, a movement to save Haley Tower was successful, and the Haley Tower Historical & Technical Society, Inc, an accredited non-profit organization, was founded to serve this goal. Read more about Haley's history in this article: "A Crossing at Haley" by member Bob Mount. (PDF Document)

The Society has already accomplished three major objectives. Land was purchased for the museum site. Haley Tower was then saved and moved onto the property. Most recently, Spring Hill Tower was purchased by the Society and moved to the site. In the end, we envision the completion of the"Wabash Valley Railroader's Museum" with the two towers as its centerpieces.

However, funding will still be critical if our plans to restore the towers are to succeed. To that end, the Society is openly soliciting memberships and contributions from the public to allow us to meet our objectives. The Society is also actively working with state and municipal officials, as well seeking corporate and business contributions.

We sincerely invite and encourage you to participate in preserving this icon of Wabash Valley railroading heritage by becoming a member of the Haley Tower Historical & Technical Society.
