Re: Tavares FL Roundabout Xing Gets Signals
An interesting note about this is that despite being rehabbed in 2013, Pinsley/FCEN recently took the Sorrento Branch (the track running east from this junction) out of service. They were not using it, but O&NW, the tourist RR that operates in this area, was, and they weren't too happy about being t...

Cantilever Over Ped/Bike Trail
Looks like this crossing originally had 2 of the same old-style cantilevers, but when the bike trail was built next to the road, they replaced one of the old cantilevers with a longer one that could cover the bike trail and the road. Looks like this decision was made by somebody who knows nothing ab...

Re: Miniature Crossing Signals
Spotted this one while watching Jersey Shore: https://www.google.com/maps/@40.0916319,-74.0372949,3a,43.4y,181.55h,86.22t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1sAF1QipPWBI6JISGDfBilOU4Tf4cC7I5uEQhPbvF56FGG!2e10!3e11!6shttps:%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2Fp%2FAF1QipPWBI6JISGDfBilOU4Tf4cC7I5uEQhPbvF56FGG%3Dw203-h100-...

Re: Tracks out of service
Now here's something odd. The last crossing on a little-used line has mast signals, but poles for huge cantilevers. There is one customer between this crossing and the end of the line at the GSP, but their spur doesn't look active. Maybe they are or were planning to widen the road. Rails do look lik...

South Central Tennessee Railroad
On one of the recently added crossings, it says Christi Dr is the farthest south active crossing on the line. I followed the line way farther south and found something rather interesting. A re-routed section of track. https://www.google.com/maps/place/4001+Long+Prairie+Rd,+Flower+Mound,+TX+75028/@35...
