Where Is It?

[pudgy]

Not Michigan, and was ripped from the web. Location is not concealed, but what is its fame? Should be recognizable from a recent milestone date we all just passed...

Port Hueneme Ca. S Ventura Rd RR Crossing that was used to film the finale of Back to the Future Part III. The milestone was the perdiction of the Cubs winning the series this year as depicted in the film.

Correct. They really dressed that spur track up to film the movie scenes. The milestone I referring to was the actual date of Oct 21st, the date they traveled to in the movie...

SEM . But, another time zone.

[AARR]

Because of your hint I'll guess Adrian but I don't know exactly where it is

That there be alongside Trolley Industrial Road in Taylor just north of the Wabash between Inkster and Holland! Was that entire industrial development built on the pretense of rail service to each place? There are lots of sidings back in there, mostly abandoned but a few still in use. This particular spur crossed Trolley Industrial northward to I-94. I really need a set of switch points.....now I've found some!

Another similar industrial park exists a short ways east of here east of Monroe Blvd.

Neh. Street View says no.

The industrial park off NS in Taylor was my first thought too but Taylor is in the same time zone so I eliminated it. Adrian, however, is in a different time zone from the rest of SE MI.

The hint was a little misleading but you guys got it. The hint came from the timetable time split at "OJ" which had two clocks in the tower to keep things straight. I'am sure it drove the operator a little crazy. The industrial park was indeed built to attract rail customers, which have come and gone over the years. Trucks kinda took over this place, but rail still has a presents.

Here we see the Google Street View Car crossing the tracks with the red lights flashing.



So what is making the red lights flash you ask? Lets spin around and look the other direction, why it must be this on comming locomotive!



Location is like the last one, somewhere in Michigan, but a different time zone.

Quite fast and quite correct. You must have been here before.

Wow even the Google Street View car beats trains.

[J T]

Looks like an industrial track. The train was probably stopped or slowly moving. Nothing to see here, move along.

[MQT1223]

At least now we know who was driving the car!

What if? Seeing the Google camera car impaled on the front coupler of a locomotive .......priceless.

(No injuries of course)

SEM . A recent acquisition for my collection. Good luck.

[AARR]

It looks like somewhere between Trenton and Ecorse. That whole stretch looks alike to me. I'll try Wyandotte between Oak and Eureka?

The two guys nearest to the camera look to be in uniforms, and not US uniforms. So I'm guessing in Canada, maybe Windsor Ont.
