That's obvious - the 50 was also based in Tunnel Then.
.
But what about 1945-1950. """As I Already Said""" the curves to and
from the tunnel for the 32 were added sometime during / after the War -
before that the X-Over just north of the P&LE stop was used for the 32
to get to and from route. I don't know if the turns to and from
E.Carson existed at that time, either - with the 50 assigned elsewhere,
they probably didn't - they had to be cut in.
