Re: Google Maps Scavenger Hunt
Those are cast-iron WRRS lights.
Older Conrail signals there! Also, never seen an S-85 gate mech with counterweight arms quite like this one:

Re: Google Maps Scavenger Hunt
Nice find! I wonder how long that line has been out of service. That crossing is in a very scenic area.Erik-Gorb-Hamilton wrote:Here is some old 45 degree cross bucks on a abandoned MILW Branch. These are getting harder and harder to find...
