Group-A while back, someone requested that I post photos of the aftermath of the grade crossing indicent I witnessed. (See the "Moving Vehicles" thread.) Well, here ya'll go!In the first photo, the post the crossbuck and stop sign had been mounted on lies across the tracks. Note the hubcap from the van. Second, an overall view of the scene (that's my friend Lou getting out of his "Saroon"). Lastly, our little public service attempt at maintaining protection at the crossing.

Also, just a toss-in because it's something you don't see every day: Indiana Transportation Museum GP-9 #200 is on the point of the monthly "Dinner Train," a four-hour excursion between Noblesville and Tipton, IN. The unit was the first in a 190-unit order built in 1954 for Union Pacific. Trailing the train is ITMZ #426, a GP-7L built in 1953 for the Nickel Plate; it would pull the train back to Noblesville after supper.
