Re: Google Maps Scavenger Hunt
A road in The Netherlands that was upgraded, then a few years later, a tram line was built and a crossing was installed at the intersection.
2009.
https://www.google.com/maps/@52.0725581 ... 312!8i6656
After a upgrade to the road in 2014.
https://www.google.com/maps/@52.0724379 ... 312!8i6656
Looking down both ends of the tracks in August 2015 (They weren't there just yet, but ballast had been laid on one side)

The crossing at first was a temporary installation, but using the gates that you get on crossings in Germany!
https://www.google.com/maps/@52.0729945 ... 312!8i6656
By 2019, the actual crossing had been installed.

The next crossing down is protected by traffic signals.

Nice catch right in front of the former Amtrak station there. It would be nice to see the Sunset Limited resume service through there in the future.brett nc railfanner wrote: Mon Nov 25, 2019 2:27 amActive crossing in Biloxi, Mississippi:
