I continued to look around, i found this crossbuck crossing, but since then it has been removed and the land on the right redeveloped.

...You can see where the grade was though, not a great resurfacing job if you ask me.

Possible trackage remains, but now redeveloped and long gone.

When tracks are paved over like that, the fact that there's not completely solid asphalt right there doesn't help when it wears off over time.

Not sure if this was posted before, but, here's an abandoned crossing in Vancouver, Canada:
https://www.google.com/maps/@49.2707544 ... 384!8i8192

Further up the line:
https://www.google.com/maps/@49.2692426 ... 312!8i6656
Looks like this was an electric commuter/light rail line, and this was a station?
https://www.google.com/maps/@49.2690173 ... 384!8i8192

A crossbuck crossing a bit further up the line:
https://www.google.com/maps/@49.2662239 ... 384!8i8192
Views looking down the tracks, also showing the small 8 inch transit lights facing the tracks here:

https://www.google.com/maps/@49.2660621 ... 384!8i8192

Continuing up the line:
https://www.google.com/maps/@49.2681754 ... 384!8i8192
A forgotten crossbuck:
https://www.google.com/maps/@49.2681932 ... 384!8i8192

The line disappears after that, but then it appears to connect into what's currently an active freight line.

This isn't a crossing, but I found the remains of an FEC abandoned spur near Hialeah.

That's pretty neat! Wonder why they didn't cover the rest of the span up closer to the road.
