Re: 3-20-24 Update
Do they use those signals in Bayard? There are identical ones on the UP serviced elevator branch line in Farnhamville as well. Although nothing will beat the dog doing it's business when the Google Maps car went by one of the Bayard crossings. :ROFL: https://www.google.com/maps/@41.8533239,-94.55797...

Re: Black Crossbuck with button copy
Line is dormant, but here's something you certainly don't see often at a public crossing. Has a matching inverse SORS as well. https://www.google.com/maps/@43.1709341,-73.3329489,3a,54y,109h,100.24t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sT0K6v4fwjzwbp7ilzD3OsQ!2e0!7i16384!8i8192?entry=ttu Oh nice!

Does this qualify as a "signal"?
Can't say I've seen this one in the MUTCD before: https://www.google.com/maps/@40.9169095,-98.461786,3a,31.7y,100.25h,89.55t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1s8k0zm4q-1UdXT-4OlYbxzg!2e0!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D8k0zm4q-1UdXT-4OlYbxzg%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactil...

Re: Different ways to mark a crossing out of service
Iowa does not use the "Tracks out of Service' signs. Either exempt signs are posted (Iowa code says that a portion of rail must be removed on both sides of the crossing to be eligible to post the crossing as exempt), the crossing is left to fall apart - whether or not it is paved over, or the signs ...

Re: 12-31-23 Update
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhSErDyV6vI I wondered if the recent purchase announcement of the Iowa Northern by Canadian National might delay the removal of the Utilities spur. Somehow it doesn't surprise me now that CN may consider another use for these tracks and perhaps decide not to abandon t...

Re: Misprinted crossbucks in service
Ugh. Discovered on Street View that UP has recently put up a couple of these (put together wrong, to boot) on a rural crossing near Evasnville, Wisconsin. Funny thing is, this crossing is essentially out of service. The only active shipper on the line is just east of the crossing (the grain elevato...
