Orlando, Florida.

Split tracks, although piled on, must be easy for scrap metal thieves to get to i suppose.
https://www.google.com/maps/@28.454566, ... 384!8i8192
Old CSX dot tags are still visible however, but all photos from streetview (2007-2018) show no crossbucks.

Crossing pictures from Plant City, FL are finally here! viewtopic.php?f=13&t=2538
Re: Tracks out of service
Nice find! I wonder if any of the semaphores are still standing today. Too bad Google doesn't have a good view of the tracks.

Re: Tracks out of service
Based on the replacement signals around several of them, probably not.

Bootle, England.

https://www.google.com/maps/@53.4673494 ... 312!8i6656
Not the greatest view i could get of the tracks here.
https://www.google.com/maps/@53.4689648 ... 312!8i6656
The tracks are easy to see here from both directions.
https://www.google.com/maps/@53.4697606 ... 312!8i6656
https://www.google.com/maps/@53.4697606 ... 312!8i6656
More trackage and a STOP board, though not sure why.
https://www.google.com/maps/@53.4696046 ... 312!8i6656
Line then runs past an industrial estate.
https://www.google.com/maps/@53.4694982 ... a=!3m1!1e3
Small views of trackage.
https://www.google.com/maps/@53.4696322 ... a=!3m1!1e3

The line turns into a bike trail.
A different line in Nashville, NC:

Re: Tracks out of service
Caribou, Maine.
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.8411496 ... 312!8i6656
Another crossbuck crossing.
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.825714, ... 312!8i6656
Faint view of ties and some rails
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.8427897 ... 312!8i6656
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.8427897 ... 312!8i6656
WRRS signal and non-functional relay case.
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.8454481 ... 312!8i6656
The lone crossbuck here is supiciously new.
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.8531332 ... 312!8i6656
GRS relay case!
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.8595181 ... 312!8i6656
As for the signals, i assume they are GRS, but one of the lights were replaced with Safetran 8 inch lights in around the 1980s.
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.8594367 ... 312!8i6656
Another suspciously new crossbuck.
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.8781658 ... 312!8i6656
A crossing that has been resurfaced over, but the tracks are visible from either end.

https://www.google.com/maps/@46.9076473 ... 312!8i6656
45 degree crossbuck! But it has seen some better days.
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.9117498 ... 312!8i6656
A crossing that has already been removed.
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.9133124 ... 312!8i6656
Tracks on the other side are slightly visible.
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.9133649 ... 312!8i6656
Is that a Christmas tree growing on the tracks?
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.92569,- ... 312!8i6656
More visible rail.
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.92569,- ... 312!8i6656
All that remains at this crossing is an out of service relay case, and a crossbuck.
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.9302259 ... 312!8i6656
A bunch of crossbuck crossings at the Loring Commerce Center area.

https://www.google.com/maps/@46.9329587 ... 312!8i6656
4 lane highway crossing with no equipment.
https://www.google.com/maps/@46.9298292 ... 312!8i6656
