Wow. This is great. I used to use to switch Industries in Terre Haute. Most of the railways you’re gone now. Some of them replaced by walking trails. Others are just flat places of land that could be a nice walking trail but haven’t been bothered to be changed yet. Railroad yards I switched out of has been changed into an industrial park. There’s limited railroad service to it. And the overpass for Fruitridge Avenue in Terre Haute goes over one railroad track where it used to go over the tracks that connected a receiving yards to a classification yards with a manual hump classification system. It’s all gone now. However there is a Internet site that lets you look at old surveys from the air of the Terre Haute area and all of the railroads that are gone now become magically visible again. I visited regularly on a trip of memories.
