Although in tracing this line Southward from Bedford, IN... it sure feels like almost all of it is currently mothballed.

That bell is almost in the backyard of that house, it'd suck to live there. Although to be fair I wouldn't want to live there even without the bell and the crossing.

Not only that, but that appears to be an older house as well. Hopefully it's well-insulated to suppress some of the sound from that bell as well. :Eeeeek:
