Seven Mile

Seven Mile is a railroad site about ten miles northwest of Moab, Utah and consists of a siding, two or three spur tracks, and a grade crossing (SR 313, the road leading to Dead Horse Point State Park). It is part of Union Pacific Railroad's Cane Creek Branch.

The first five photos were taken at the grade crossing when the crossing's warning devices (bell and lights) were operating erroneously. There was no train anywahere. I called UP's grade criossing hotline to report the problem.
