More track views. Picture 18 shows the area where a man lost his leg by a train. |
Note: Gore Ave. is an incorrect street name. The FRA somehow has Big Bend Blvd. correct though. |

A nearby Depot sits by the crossing, including a giant O scale layout inside. |

Also, the lights back in 2005 were Modern Industries incandescent 12"x24" lights. The teardrop bell was removed sometime in 2005, and replaced by the GS type 2 electronic bell.
The teardrop bell was in very poor shape, and barely worked on April 24, 2005. It was the only time that TrainmanKight ever heard this bell in action before the GS bell came along.
