Nice. A lot of signal and crossbuck posts in this area still have MILW or CNW-lettered DOT tags on the posts, except those where the entire signals have been replaced.

On the middle left was where it was, also notice how bad the tracks are to the bottom left? You should see how much dust kicks up!
