Very interesting video. I always hate to see any track taken out.

2:30, I've never seen a turnout like that before. That almost looks like something from a Thomas Wooden Railway or Lionel train layout!

Here's a little tip for something that I've recently started. Every time you visit an abandoned railroad line, grab a spike and label it for what line it was from. I recently took a trip to my hometown and found a spike and tie plate (currently sitting in the trunk of my car, since I don't have room at the moment) alongside the Xenia Industrial Track in Dayton, Ohio sitting on the side of the bike path that runs parallel to it. Eventually, I'll upload a video about the line, the crossing, and the treasures I now have (schedule permitting).

Yea, I've been doing that as well. Nice to save a bit of it. Might come back soon and grab a spike or something off of this line as well.

@@kyleb06 Well, I uploaded the video of the crossing. Its short and has no narration. I put the info in the description.

Good stuff. Looking at the topos on the USGS site and aerials on Historic Aerials, I can't see that there ever was a siding that ran up against the loading dock on the building on 1st Street. Odd, it looks like there had to of been. The map from 1948 doesn't show that building, the one from 1960 does. And that area across Prairieton Rd. looks fascinating!

When was the last time a train ran down this tracks?
@kyleb063 жыл бұрын
1-2 years ago for the first part, about 10-15 years ago for the part with the signalized crossing.
