Eastern Railroad Discussion > few from the Crescent City . .

. . even though it rained with no sun at all today in New Orleans, LA, I poked around the east side of town finding a few things of note.
top: A New Orleans Public Belt job was switching a yard on the east side of town.
middle: Nearby a once unlikely pair (now days anything goes) were tucked away on a spur a little south of the above yard.
bottom: With a post a few days ago about stop signs and manual gates guarding railroad crossing diamonds this one quards the crossing of NOPB's main track with a branch or short line (?) heading south out of town.

Did they elevate it to get it above sea level?

Great view down the track in your 3rd photo.
