Well, at least it's only foot traffic and not automobile traffic, so that grade would probably last for a lot longer time.
I was referring to kind of the who area, like how the tracks run so close to the road and that little pedestrian crossing is for an entrance to that building. I just thought it was kind of a unique area.
as those are newer buildings.
That is kind of why I find it weird! :Clap:
Those tracks may not actually be in service anymore, if you go down farther...

Kind of hard to tell though as those rails do look relatively shinny.

That is pretty weird seeing a semi in a very residential area like that!

Here is a pretty cool old signal! If it weren't for the sign, this signal would be easily mistaken as being a signal for the crossing.

Looks like the Google car went in the grass and probably gently sideswiped that bush/tree to get around it Appears he wasn't the only one.

And the truck was there because the people in this house are either moving out or moving in. Probably was there for a good several hours at least.

Still not something I'd do though if I were a truck driver. Besides, if that were in the county, that would be disallowed entirely.
