I have no idea how this still exists...

I changed the view over to satellite and it shows it is still there. But the satellite pictures might be outdated...

Durham, NC:

https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Willard+ ... 5,,0,-0.64

The cantilever has been re-purposed, but the mast lights and a crossbuck remain:

https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Willard+ ... .45,,1,0.7

Flickr shows that these signals remained until at least 2009:

New Hebron, MS:

https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Newhebro ... 63,,1,4.04

https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Newhebro ... .07,,0,3.8

On satellite view it's almost impossible to tell there was a right-of-way there, especially to the north. To the south it can just barely be traced through the woods.

Still there as of 2011:

Here's a signal base further up the line:

Even farther up the ROW there is some visible rail and what appears to be a tie:
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=East+Cle ... 32.31&z=19
https://maps.google.com/maps?q=East+Cle ... 38.45&z=19

Even farther up:

There were signals here:

There were signals here too:

Tracks were cut just before the closer crossing:
https://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&ll=3 ... 5,,0,19.11

Not too far away this crossing has had the tracks removed ad the crossing paved over:
https://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&ll=3 ... 1,,0,12.29

Here is some more of the L&N line that used to run through Huntsville:

According to satellite view, the tracks no longer cross this road:

There were signals here as-well:

There are some railroad related things here such as a pole-mounted case, what appears to be the remains of a signal, and some rails:
