Jacob Nelson General Its abandon, but the signals and the tin box are still there? 9/30/2007 1:03:06 AM
Andre Wehrle General Yup. There has been talk for years about building an industrial park south of here that would make use of the rail line, but issues keep coming up. Until a permanent decision is made one way or the other, the line will neither be reactivated or dismantled. 10/4/2007 12:56:00 PM
Andre Wehrle General Also notice that one of the lamps on the signal is missing its lens cover and visor. The other signal at this crossing is missing. 10/4/2007 12:57:42 PM
A.J. Gonfiantini General I went to this crossing about a year ago, and the signal is now gone. There are double crossbucks and yield signs on both sides. Nice shot. 6/20/2011 9:41:45 AM
