I think this particular track has since been removed for a bike trail.

EDIT:Found another defunct one in Sarcoxie:

Those Safetran lights look to be fairly new. Probably did not get much use before than line went dead.

The last known teardrop bell in the Metro area is gone. :Cry1:

It was on 104th Avenue at Herman Road in Tualatin. They've re-designed the intersection and all the signals have been replaced. :glare:
You think your car gets bad mileage? SP 4449 consumes 10 gallons of bunker oil and 100 gallons of water every mile.

Might be one on this cabinet in Louisiana (if not, it sure is an odd looking cabinet):
