These are freight tracks embedded in the street, not trolley tracks. They are standard gauge, whereas all trolley tracks in Philly are broad gauge. Another clue that these are freight tracks and not trolley tracks is the switch: the point is missing, but if this were trolley tracks, there would be no switch point on this side; only on the other side of the track. (See note above.)

As far as I could tell, these marks in the sand were entirely from water receding. The "fake tyre tracks" were particularly interesting.
Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant--While kneeling next to a camera trap placed by biologists so Joe Wasilewski could check it for use, we noticed many tracks made by a large American crocodile deep in the mud. Notice the tail drag on the right side of the image, and the claw marks near the bottom.

I believe this is the lever that switches the track for a train to lead down.

Sunday morning and a day to savour following yesterdays portion of bluster and rain. With a light step I set off keeping in mind the need for a stile on the right to allow a crossing of the rail track. Of course I'm stravaiging along without a care till I find myself at Arram railway station and realise I have missed my stile, mild curses at my inattention and I retrace my steps all the way back to this spot close to my overnight camp! There was no crossing save for the one near my camp and that's definitely off-route. Rather than make a third traverse of this path, to pick up the route by a short detour through Arram, I elected for the longer option by way of Arram Grange Farm and the banks of the River Hull, all in all this diversion cost about 45 minutes time but its still a good walk. I find it slightly weird that I get pissed off by route-finding errors, after all I subscribe to the notion that if a five mile walk is good, then a ten miler must be twice as good, so why get annoyed by extra walking due to errors? it should be celebrated surely, I know, I know but it still annoys me.
