Various Landscapes & Draining The Swamp

We may or may not get sorta high-speed rail through Vero Beach. And, if we do some of the track will need improvements. This is not TGV we are talking here. 

Reworking rail crossings, where the train-car hits are going to take place, is part of the plan. 

I lived, in Lafayette, within twenty or thirty yards of a rail crossing. Even with slow-speed trains there were regular one-sided events involving a train and a car. For which to occur, the car driver had to go around crossing gates. Big sedans make a thud sound when they are hit. Minivans more of a crunching, popping, and crackling. Maybe it's more glass?

74th Ave SW. Bridge collapsed some time ago. A replacement and repair is being made.

 






Downtown, another crossing repair. Which, closing Route 60 westbound on Sunday morning, really confused a lot of elderly drivers. Who had not computed about half a mile of signs about road closed ahead. It all happened so fast!
