Posted by HarryP on Wed Nov 7 08:06:13 2007, in response to Re: PHOTOS: B&O/SEPTA Route 11 Darby crossing, posted by TransitChuckG on Wed Nov 7 06:35:41 2007. The Rt 11 and CSX crossing in the Boro of Darby,is not the only Streetcar crossing in the USA. Actually, there are three other active streetcar/railroad crossings in the U.S.:San Francisico's MUNI's Third Street T line has two active Railroad crossings in an industrial district in Bayville. Last month, while riding an inbound T Breda LRV,the car I was on and an outbound car were both delayed for about five min., as a slow-moving UP freight was crossing third Street. This RR crossing is located just south of the Islais Creek Channel Bridge, which the T line crosses on an unusual Bridge. The other RR crossing is about a half a mile south on Third St. Sorry, I can't remember the exact location. Tampa FL's TECO Historic Streetcar also has an active RR crossing with CSX, which AMTRAK also uses. This may be the only active Steetcar/RR Passenger crossing in the country. |
