Re: Google Maps Scavenger Hunt
If I were likely to guess, I think this is an old SOU gated install: https://www.google.com/maps/@36.4749831,-82.2616564,3a,83y,346.21h,94.59t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sjZaKnVn_8PPHBrt1LDGSXA!2e0!7i3328!8i1664 Not sure about this one...

Re: Trains on google street view.
NS 9926, 9131, 2526, 7625, and 8725, pulling a eastbound train near Abingdon, Virginia:

Probably a mixture of a 1980's/2000 BN/BNSF installation, not sure. https://www.google.com/maps/@45.7299013,-107.6059665,3a,75y,181.44h,88.04t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sCUr-W7tUkhjtzcCgWGODJQ!2e0!5s20130801T000000!7i13312!8i6656 Looks more like a 2000's BNSF install to me.
