This was the first railroad crossing I recorded on August 1, 2024. That day, along with @freebrickproductions , we went to the CSX Norlina Sub to catch the local. While it would be a while before it gets moving, when I first heard something in the distance, I was able to set up just in time and get a crossing recorded for the day: Ligon Mill Road! After this, I continued to the next crossing.
