Re: Google Maps Scavenger Hunt
We were just talking about that crossing and neighboring crossings not that long ago! I don't think anyone found an active view of one of them.brett nc railfanner wrote:Active crossing

Re: Google Maps Scavenger Hunt
Railroad crossing with 2 inverted track signs, also a possible location where Hall Disc signals (Banjo signals) could have been used in the past.

Re: Google Maps Scavenger Hunt
There is this crossing in my area with two inverted track signs. But it is in a bad neighborhood so I don't have any plans to document this crossing.IanMP wrote:Railroad crossing with 2 inverted track signs,

I thought it would be worth mentioning that the gate and it's mechanism have been removed.ToledoRailfan wrote:To protect the little animals from the crossing!freebrickproductions wrote:Why is this gate here?![]()

Active crossing in Uruguay, with a car driving around the gates. Looks like the google car did too!
