The plight of the single interlocking tower is getting so bad that now we don't even have states without active interlocking towers, but states without any interlocking towers at all. Closed, preserved or otherwise. I'm not talking about states like Hawaii or Alaska or Wyoming either, but populous states like Florida which recently saw the demolition of its last free standing tower in early 2019.
As indicated by the video, TN Tower survived for 3 decades after being closed and even had a freeway built on top of it. However someone somewhere in CSX got pissed off enough to call in the demolition crew and asbestos remediation folks. Unfortunately it won't be long until this more states encounter the same situation :-(

Im relatively close to TN. Saw it a handful of times from the windows of Amtrak 91/92. TN used to be a very busy interlocking, nowadays it serves 2 Amtraks and a handful of locals, if that. Sad to see it go
