This one goes back a ways <br /> <br />In the town I grew up in, Ft wayne In, The old Wabash main out the SW side of town, crossed the Nickle Plate spur (Both now NS) out near the western city limits. <br /> <br />At this crossing was a switch tower, long abandoned by the time I discovered it in the late 60's. And a reflective black and white sign identified it as "Hugo". <br /> <br />There is no such town, township, or neighborhood by that name in the area. <br /> <br />In a journey down memory lane last summer, I noticed it was all torn down, to make room for triple crown, which itself has since even moved on. <br /> <br />But remaining was a fairly new reflective green and white sign reading "Hugo". <br /> <br />I guess this must mean "Hugo Junction", correct? <br /> <br />Who, or what was Hugo?
