This was the first train and railroad crossing I recorded on September 14, 2025. Yesterday, I was on my way to Memphis, but the first thing I did before I got to Memphis was stop in Alabama and Mississippi for a few missing gaps. Then I checked in to my hotel, got up, and the next day, up and running to the NS Memphis District West End! I sadly missed an eastbound autorack, which basically destroyed my chance earlier, but thankfully, I got another window in, but barely, to record Mendenhall Road #2, (#1 is on an R.J. Corman Industry Lead south of this crossing), and since it isn't the best on having to get in barely in time, I could maybe re-record this, but should I ever go back to this line, I may just record other crossings before re-recording this particular one.
