Re: Tracks out of service
Found some remains of an A-frame gate in Benjamin, Utah!
https://www.google.com/maps/@40.0853678 ... 6656?hl=en
Looked a little better in 2007. The other side had a normal gate:
https://www.google.com/maps/@40.0853532 ... 1664?hl=en
The next crossing over looked pretty decent in 2012. The bell is on the relay case... something quite common along this section of line it appears.
https://www.google.com/maps/@40.1080679 ... 6656?hl=en
It appears here that the line is active here again, as this crossing has been upgraded... sort of. It now has 2 e-bells, but also still has an m-bell on the relay box. Interesting...

Re: Tracks out of service
Here's an unused spur in Burnsville, MS that quite literally goes nowhere. It doesn't even connect to the NS Memphis District West End's mainline! It was built to serve an industrial park that was never developed, from what I understand.
The entire spur:
https://www.google.com/maps/@34.8323432 ... a=!3m1!1e3
North end of the spur:
https://www.google.com/maps/@34.8365151 ... a=!3m1!1e3
South end of the spur:
https://www.google.com/maps/@34.8284828 ... a=!3m1!1e3
https://www.google.com/maps/@34.8286412 ... 312!8i6656
There are also two crossbuck crossings along it:

https://www.google.com/maps/@34.8287223 ... 312!8i6656

Re: Tracks out of service
St Petersburg, Florida. Partially abandoned CSX spur.
The first crossing has signals on one side of the road!
https://www.google.com/maps/@27.7733955 ... 312!8i6656
Early-mid 70's Seaboard Coast Line installation of a weird intersection crossing.
https://www.google.com/maps/@27.7751953 ... 312!8i6656
Looks like they tried to use trashbags on the signals in 2011, but they didn't cover them up good.
https://www.google.com/maps/@27.7740876 ... 312!8i6656
https://www.google.com/maps/@27.7751136 ... 312!8i6656
Another crossing with signals on one side of the road.
https://www.google.com/maps/@27.7738916 ... 312!8i6656
Crossing next to an overpass, interestingly enough, these signals were gone by the time 2011 rolled around.
https://www.google.com/maps/@27.7775091 ... 312!8i6656
https://www.google.com/maps/@27.7775373 ... 312!8i6656
Some VERY VERY VERY faded crossbucks still sitting in October 2014, i wonder if thats a TECO car maintenace depot?

Reason: Corrected "Russia" to "Florida". Last I checked, Russia didn't have any territories in the Americas, at present, nor am I aware that cabman speaks any Russian. :P

Re: Tracks out of service
That has all been posted here countless times here (I've lost count tbqh, why can't y'all just use the forum's search feature? ). The part that's in service is a part of the CSX Clearwater Subdivison, aka through where cabman lives.NathanFromEngland wrote:St Petersburg, Florida. Partially abandoned CSX spur.

Re: Tracks out of service
No... those are buses that look like trolley's. The TECO cars are in Tampa which is across the bay. That area you are looking at is the maintenance garage for the city of Saint Petersburg.NathanFromEngland wrote:Some VERY VERY VERY faded crossbucks still sitting in October 2014, i wonder if thats a TECO car maintenace depot?
