Here are the tracks:
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... ,6.37&z=21

https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... -7.38&z=21
I wonder what this was for:
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... 18.97&z=21

https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... ,5.26&z=21
2008 view of the crossing:
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... -2.99&z=21

https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... 0,3.8&z=21

https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... ,0.94&z=21
This line was owned by CSX:
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... 14.98&z=21

https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... ,0.24&z=21

https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... ,-2.4&z=21
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... -0.82&z=21
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... -4.91&z=21

https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... ,9.18&z=21
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... 0,1.4&z=21

The beginning of the abandonment:
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... ,5.39&z=21

Part of the line was turned into a trail, but this is one use for old crossing signals:
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... -7.84&z=21
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=St.+Pete ... ,4.04&z=21

Some old track left along the trail:
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=27.76284 ... gl=us&z=21
Unfortunately, the signals on the dead portion of that line have all been removed according to Google Satellite imagery, and the tracks ripped up/paved over.

Also, that line has been talked about already: http://www.rxrsignals.net/Phpbb3/viewto ... =966#p6285

And that line is part of the Clearwater subdivision that spurs off from the line that goes to Brooksville and on the southern end of the Brooksville subdivision line is the southern end of the CSX S line.
Crossing pictures from Plant City, FL are finally here! viewtopic.php?f=13&t=2538
