You've only got a few days though before Tommy posts his next update, so you'd better hurry! :Tongue2: Though you can always use this thread for reference.
They/Them for me, please.

Very interested to see the crossings from Cordova, AL because I know that town was hit very hard in the tornado super outbreak of 27 April 2011. Also, congratulations on finally getting the only surviving "Fail-Safe" signal on the site!

Sadly, that signal was recently removed.

Someone in the railroad signals or railroad crossings group on Facebook said they went to the crossing and it was gone, also a friend a mine who works for Norfolk Southern said that the crossing was being removed.

Also someone on Facebook claims that there is one in service in the woods of southern Missouri, I know that is unrelated to the topic but I'd thought I'd share it.

Ugh that sucks! :Cry1: Is there any word on what it's being replaced by?

I don't know what the crossing is being replaced by, it could be possible that the crossing wasn't being used before it was being removed as it appears to lead to a small deforested area.
