Interesting fact: according to the FRA, this crossing has been closed since August 14, 1981! There is a logical explanation for this. This crossing was part of the former CGW line between Oelwein and Dubuque, Iowa, which was abandoned in 1981.

The side track no longer crosses the road. The road was recently reconstructed. The side track was likely removed at that time.			The end of the line.

A couple changes were made to the Westbound signal as well. The "2-Tracks" sign was removed and the signal itself was moved closer to the remaining active track.			The WRRS bell remains in place.
