Hurricane Irma came through Homestead and South Florida causing a lot of damage and loose debris; same as Hurricane Andrew in 1992. These fallen trees landed on the unused, seemingly abandoned, CSX Homestead Subdivision railroad and blocked it. A train hasn't been here in years, nor is there a plan to send one, although the railroad crossings still have power to them. It was originally an SAL built in 1927, then SCL, finally CSX. It's a couple of miles away from the former FEC tracks that ran parallel to US1. This is about 20 something miles South of Miami.
