I was able to head down to S. Dallas yesterday, and I got to take pictures of one of the xings.

Unfortunately, the bell seen in google maps, today, its now gone! :TDOWN:

:Scared: That is pretty dang rare! Is the line still used? If it is, try to get some video of it in action!

He is right, there is no longer a line there. But if you go a few blocks N, of the crossing, some of the old tracks appear. If you follow them, it ends at the currently existing KCS Dallas sub line right by Downtown Dallas. Also, this ex line used to belong to Texas Pacific RR. Hope this info helps! :Smile:

Those signals in Lansing still exist... or at least they did back in 2011. http://goo.gl/maps/vsOXf :TUP1:
