This is the last train I saw on September 16, the last Norfolk Southern Train I saw, but the second train I saw on my Ohio Trip. After a while, before I went to bed at my uncle's house, I decided to wait for a train at Wildwood Road, a crossing that still retains interesting equipment. But when the train came through here, it was dark. I don't watch for trains too often at night nowadays, but I wanted to get this nice crossing!

Also, this, along with Manchester Road, are the only 2 crossings, as far as I'm aware of, that still retains 8 inch lights.
