Jeff,
 
Yep. That would be the one. I have not turned up many photos of it.
 
Thanks,
Dave.

Dave - 

There was never an interlocking tower at Coopers.  You're probably thinking about the tower at Bluestone Junction, where the Pocahontas Branch joined the Pocahontas Division mainline.  The switch for the Bluestone Branch was (and still is) located just west of the junction near the east portal of Coopers Tunnel.

Alex,
 
That is what I was looking for, ESPECIALLY any photos of the Coopers control 'tower'.
Maybe the book includes what movements the tower controlled, and their call sign.
 
One more for my Christmas list.
 
Thank you,
Dave Willis.

Dave, 
 
Assuming your question is:
 
How much coverage, history, photos were included about Cooper(s) in the Bluestone Branch Line book the answer is:
 
4 photos, 4 maps or drawings, and info on Coopers is included on 9 separate pages
 
There are an additional 7 pages and 12 photos that deal with John Cooper’s Mill Creek Coal & Coke Co which was the basis for establishing Coopers, the original Mill Creek Branch and Coaldale. Nine of the 12 photos are about Coaldale.
