Re: Funny little guy.
that is strange, there are a lot of trees along that road, so could it be for visibility down the street?

Re: Funny little guy.
Well, if you drag the street view guy down a few addresses it doesn't really do that much. I'd get pictures but Wentworth and 119't isn't exactly a great area. Then again no place on any Metra Electric branch is that great...illinoistrains wrote:that is strange, there are a lot of trees along that road, so could it be for visibility down the street?

Nice how they had to break the background discs on the sidelights since they're so large.
Ah, too bad they still couldn't be 8"...

That crossing is DOT 289601K. The report labels that a "Cantilevered FL (Not Over)," which seems to be an accurate description. That's the only time I've seen that category actually used.

I've seen that category on the FRA site, but had zero idea how something could be cantilevered but "not over" something. I guess this solves that quandry.AndyWS wrote:That crossing is DOT 289601K.

Re: Funny little guy.
I take the word "over" as over the roadway.
