Looking at the "Leaning Locomotive" thread I stumbled on those videos of street running trains in America. I found them quite amazing. Considering the effort made in this country to keep trains separated from everything else. The line in Tampa Fla. running down what appears to be a newly built main street seems strange; I would have thought they could have isolated the track. It seems to be quite common over there in spite of having plenty of space, unlike the UK's cramped environment.
Was reading about those crossing closures, can't remember where but one was at Bloxwich on the Rugeley to Walsall line.
