Check out the site where the Famous CSX Homestead Subdivision starts to be inactive and then an abandoned railway into obscurity!
This track South of Gold Coast Railroad Museum is now abandoned and no longer out of service or unused. It was an original Seaboard Air Line built in 1926 for Passenger trains and tourism to Homestead, Florida at the time.

Ah Daniel Son 😂 thought you'd be too young to know of that. Shame about the wind noise, don't realise it at time of recording.

Lol There's nothing like 80s movies my friend! I can quote Rambo, Rocky, Three Amigos, you get the point! My apologies about the wind. They are really strong here this time of year. I hope all is well with you and thanks for the continued support of my channel!

Great video! I used to ride ATCs out there also, baxk in the 80s. The 3 Lakes community was built in the late 90s, but those lakes came from quarries, which moved west. Swimming and boating are allowed. That rail line is old, but so cool to see and bring back memories.

Here in Toronto, remnants of the original Grand Truck line can be found in the Lower Don Vally at certain points. Most of which has sunken below the soil all around the CN Bala Subdivision.

Cool video! I love abandoned things as well. I'm always wondering what it was like when things were being used and in full operation. When a falling down house may have been someone's dream come true a century ago...

Nice find Daniel son! 😀They should be called that line bonsai. 🤣So cool that you found a hidden treasure buried in the ground. That wall with graffiti next to the tracks is nothing compared to Los Angeles, the industrial buildings next to the tracks and brick walls are pretty much covered with graffiti.

It's probably a service road for MOW.? It would be interesting to see the rock quarry where they extract the rock? Where kind of material do extract there? Sandstone, ancient seashells? What?

@railrol82 Жыл бұрын

It may have been a service road for MOW, good point. That is a great question about which material they extract there. I don't have an answer, but I'll see if one day l can sneak a video. Thanks as always for the continued support of my channel, Mike. Hope all is well!

The tracks that you found in the ground are an interesting find. I hope that you are going to tell us what you if anything that you find out about them from the old aerial maps. I would be interested in knowing what you find in the old aerial maps. Could there have been a building between the wye that required train service in the past? Was there even a wye in this area in the past?

Always wanted to see this location. If you had a railcar you could ride down the abandoned section till you hit the overgrown area. Do you think the area of the old track could have been a service area for maintenance. Hope you can find more info.

Hey Roli does it mean that the 1926 75 lb rail could not support modern day 6 axle locomotive and only could support the weight of a 4 axle locomotive?

@evanstauffer4470 11 ай бұрын

I was an engineer, not MOW. However, I believe with good ties, adequate ballast, and proper lining and surfacing, that line should be able to support a 6-axle locomotive operating at a safe speed. The key metric is the weight per axle, not the total weight of the locomotive. There are many variables, however the weight per axle of a 6-axle locomotive is not that much higher than the weight per axle of a 4-axle locomotive. Some "first generation" diesels had "A-1-A" trucks (center axle not powered) to spread the locomotive's weight over more wheels for operation over branch lines with light rail.
