Mike's Railroad Crossing Forum

While bumming around on Google Maps looking at the new street view images, I noticed that the BNSF/UP/AMTK Substation Road crossing outside of Girard, IL has been taken out of service.

Here is a view on GSV: https://maps.google.com/?ll=39.464592,- ... 29,,0,4.83

The signals at the UP/AMTK crossing are still in place.

According to the ICC page, the BNSF crossing was taken out of service on 11-20-12 and the UP crossing on 4-25-13.

I would have to assume those dates really should match. I doubt they would close one crossing and leave the other one open for 5 more months. Cars couldn't get very far after crossing the one set of tracks.
