- Most Polluted Railroad Crossing in Miami / Hialeah / South Florida
The rail is from 1950 which is older than I Love Lucy and living here all my life, I'd never heard anyone speak about the other half of the wye that was here in Hialeah at one point in history. Join me for some archaeology in South Florida in this video!

As someone who grew up in south Florida this is absolutely disgusting what has become of it..
I share your disgust my friend!
Rocking a new look. You look great my friend!
Awesome Video!
Thanks as always for the support of my channel, Epacm!
I really value your videos because you show the bad and the ugly of railroads! I thoroughly enjoy each and every video and you are an awesome historian! Keep it up Railrol! I would say you’re absolutely right! I remember when this Spur received boxcars and bulkhead flats! I think that it’s abandoned also!
I'm flattered you think so and thank you so much for the kind words. I like sharing my findings with like minded people who can appreciate railroads and history. Who knows, maybe one day this spur will make a comeback! Thanks again for the support of my channel, Armando.
Ya gotta new look mate. I like it. 👍
Thanks for the compliment, Wolf. Hope all is well with and l appreciate the continued support!
@@railrol82 The same with you. Keep the vid's comin and be careful.
Brother Rol, as a former Native South Florida resident it is MOST unpleasant to see what is going on nowadays. CLEARLY Code Enforcement is on Holiday or something
Yes sir, it is a question of who does the least here. The RR doesn't care because the line is inactive and the City doesn't care because it is on RR property.
If you could find photos of what the tracks looked like at the spot where that canal and building is now would be neat. Thank you for the video
Looks like that crossing is a dumping ground for private haulers. Probably no cameras around to catch the perpetrators.
That sounds about right, private haulers. Hope all is well with you, Tommy. Thanks as always for the support of my channel!
That is crazy! I guess because it is abandoned they could care less about that crossing. You do not want to go there at night. Do you know how long that siding has been abandoned?
You're right on the money, DP. South FL is a place where people compete to see who cares the least. The city thinks, it's on RR property, their problem and the RR thinks, it's an inactive spur who cares... South FL in a nutshell. I remember in 2018, it was active. I'm going to assume around covid time, judging by the vegetation growth. Thanks as always for the views and comments!
Dang ROLY, how can the city let this go on like this? (sic)
Good question Doug, South FL is a place where people compete to see who cares the least. The city thinks, it's on RR property, their problem and the RR thinks, it's an inactive spur who cares... South FL in a nutshell. Thanks as always for the views and comments!
good morning railrol82 my sweet friend
Good morning Tamera, hope all is well
@@railrol82 yes everything is well about you
there isA lot of tras along abandoned spur near my house sad to see
There are inconsiderate pigs all over the place. Thanks as always for the support of my channel, Walter!
let's uncover some Railrocrossingasaur bones from the 1950s era, an extinct type of dinosaur that flashed red and were used for trains sometimes
they had no mouth, and didnt eat, they relied on humans to give them spare parts, their roar depends on the bell that was mounted on their head.
they died out when Ebells were invented because ebells were so quiet the people didnt hear them and ended up getting in accidents, thus killing them off for good
nice video railrol82, you are the REAL railroad archeologist
Boy this is like the eye of the storm and all the garbage filtered out of the stratosphere and landed there. Even in Chicago at some abandoned Crossings I don't remember looking this bad. Perhaps some gasoline and a couple matches would at least condense the piles of garbage. Your final shots by that canal it is amazing how on a road gets reconstructed the traces of a railroad just simply disappear and I would have never guessed homes would be on that small Street. Nothing like staring at a semi trailer out your front window. Judging from the accumulated garbage I didn't see a Wendy's container as they were probably sold out of everything
LOL Perhaps there were no Wendy's bags because they were out of them too! Funny thing about that neighborhood, that isn't so funny, is that it is of a low socio economic status and it is mixed commercial/residential. Thanks as always for the support of my channel, Paul! Hope you have a good week sir.
About a week ago I followed a train down Greves St in Milwaukee which is parallel to the old MILW RD main line but is now cut off since they made Canal Street go through. This was by the site of Cut Off Tower and now with no businesses on this section of Street which ends in a cul-de-sac it is extremely seedy with transients and drug dealers but at night there have got to be several truckloads of tires furniture roofing material Landscaping debris and other garbage just dumped there. It's city property for the most part though some does spill onto the railroads and apparently there is a quarterly clean up but that is a sad site from what it used to look like
That is sad, why do people dump stuff like that, can only think litter attracts litter, hence it just gets worse.
Yes sir, I think it all comes down to lack of pride and ownership in your city.
Wow that's a pretty nasty area there. Nothing like my model Railroad town. That behavior is not permitted 🤣🤣
You run a tight ship, nice! Thanks as always for the views and comments, Dennis!
Well I personally have not witnessed a railroad crossing so polluted with garbage and such. I am no follower of Santa Ria, but when leaving an "offering" on railroad tracks isn't there a need of traffic on the railroad tracks to "carry away" spirits of the offering? I surmised that is reason for "gift" left on the track or tracks in the first place? As always sights, history as well as past and present photos and video tells a story of mostly decline and/or abandonment of right of way up keep or at least mowing and removal of trees. It is sad Roly to see the decline of America's vast railroad network. The switch from railroad delivery and pickup to tractor trailers for that is overwhelming. Yes for some things large and very heavy train is still King, but not like it was 60+ years ago in my school age into adulthood growing up in Western Pennsylvania. Glad you are keeping track (no pun intended) of railroad history. The one greatest achievement by Pennsylvania Railroad was Horseshoe Curve near Altoona, PA. I personally rode through it several times. Once Eastward and Westward on a Cub Scouting trip by special train trip setup through Regional Scouting group. A couple other time with Amtrak. Glad you keep "track" of these things before some are lost forever for the rest of us still interested in railroading. Thanks!!😊
Ridiculous people leaving trash everywhere on highway and railroad crossing including business as well
Yes sir, this is a nationwide problem. Thanks as always for the support of my channel!
Sad to see this, nobody wants to clean it up.
Welcome to South FL, where no one does anything!
What a messy place. I would not have come within ten feet of that place.
I hear you, Thomas. When I used to be a train conductor, I would visit places like this (not as bad) regularly, it comes with the territory. Thanks as always for the views and comments!
This is disgusting! People leaving their trash at this crossing. You should call the railroad and let them know. I would raise Cain. Other than that, awesome video. Have a nice day
Have you ever seen anything like this?
Great video
Shalom Roly! For areas that go from that bad to worse you have to go to India. I cannot remember the vlog but I'll bet you can type in Indian railroads and find a good representation. Lord how nasty. Anywhere like that.
Shalom Frank, you're right on the money. I haven't seen an Indian RR per se, but I've seen footage of their river baths and it seems pretty unhygienic to say the least! Thanks as always for the views and comments!
The municipality needs to get after whomever is responsible for maintaining this land OR clean it up and bill them. That’s truly grotesque 👎
Unfortuantely Sue, I think this is a question of who cares less. The city won't clean it up because this is RR property and the RR won't clean it up because it is on an inactive spur and they simply don't care probably. Thanks as always for the support of my channel!
@@railrol82 such an eyesore and health hazard, too. BTW I have a UA-cam official handle now 😎
Get ready : #SueLovesTrains
I bet that smells like a bed roses
That a hazmat location need to the city of Miami saturation or the county and clean that up !!!!
A bed of roses that were harvested in a toxic landfill lol. Thanks as always for the views and comments, Jeff!
Has anybody thought about calling city of Miami or county code enforcement to come out that mess up !!!!!
Looks like third world country not you would happened in the United States !!!!!!
Very dangerous man you can step on needles or something even worse don’t even walk in that
I appreciate your concern, Andrew. This is something train conductors do all the time and it becomes second nature. Thanks as always for the views and comments!
Trashed, thanks Roly!
Sad but true. Thanks as always for the support of my channel!
Man shows how people can be pigs by leaving their trash behind. It's a shame! Why can that city send sanitation workers to clean it up?
In New York City it would 🎉 been cleaned up and the land owner billed !
South FL is a place where people compete to see who cares the least. The city thinks, it's on RR property, their problem and the RR thinks, it's an inactive spur who cares... South FL in a nutshell. Thanks as always for the views and comments!
@@railrol82 Wow, that's something. lol So the trash will clean itself up then.🤣
This is sad to see!!! you should show this to the town of Hialeah board of health, show them the pig that live there. They should be made to clean this place up
Unfortunately Doug, I think this is a question of who cares less. The city won't clean it up because this is RR property and the RR won't clean it up because it is on an inactive spur and they simply don't care probably. Thanks as always for the support of my channel!
now you might no about fec do you think fec will run more trafic in the day time intermodal fec does not run to much intermodal it can be a dead line
Do you ever run out of spots to film in Miami ?
I'm always discovering new things, for example this video and Part 1, I'll also hit the road too and go film in other places.
Who ever owns those properties, is responsible. The city can give you that information. If you were going to pursue this, photos in detail will help. These photos need to show start signs and other clues , astonishing where this is. Dating the photos helps. Your video could work as well. Something that shows exactly where these are. Then you would need to keep checking back, as to any progress on this.
Unfortunately Walter, I think this is a question of who cares less. The city won't clean it up because this is RR property and the RR won't clean it up because it is on an inactive spur and they simply don't care probably. Thanks as always for the support of my channel!
@@railrol82 the residents should seek legal action against both parties for failing to enforce their own health codes, for starts. That’s total BS !
Statistically, 92% of residents here don't speak English... They either don't care or have bigger fish to fry!
@@railrol82 que lastima
Dude. That makes Detroit look good in comparison. Yikes.
Looks like maybe bums and people looking to party like to... just hang out there?
LOL I don't know if you were playing around when you said bums and people partying, but l did see some scattered bums in this general area, all within blocks of each other. I'm assuming when the sun goes down, they roam this area like dinosaurs in Jurassic Park. Hope all is well with you and the family, my good man!
@@railrol82 Heh. Great analogy, dude. Like, I can actually visualize it just like that. Cue Dave Chappelle and his crackhead bit, wandering around, T-Rex arms out.... "Y'all got some crack?!"
Lolololol it's funny because it's true!
ChainsawN&W1218, looks like some people mistook the crossing for the dump,idiots reminds Me when people were braking into Union Pacific IM trains out in LA earlier this year and there was merchandise and junk all over the tracks!👍🛤
People were breaking into trains in LA, do you mean Los Angeles or Louisiana?
ChainsawN&W1218, Los Angeles,it was on the news earlier this year!
