The satellite image of this location shows a long line of what appears to be tanker cars stored on this track: https://www.google.com/maps/place/30906 ... 7907?hl=en

The track is active a little further to the west of this location and hosts an excursion train that runs between Mt. Dora and Tavares, FL: http://www.orangeblossomcannonball.com/
The tracks end over here:

I only live about 90 minutes from this town... I might be making a trip up there in a few weeks to see if the crossing in the weeds is still there. I'll try to get a picture of this as well. :TUP2:

EDIT:
Pinsley... lol. Never mind.
