Wheel stops & Bumpers

I keep finding bumpers in my photo collection.

LOL!

I took that in Cass, West Virginia a few years ago!

Thanks for posting that one Peirce!

 

Two more from Johnny Trains' endless collection:

DIRT STOP


WOOD STOP

 

Thanks again my friend!

The dirt one is from Piqua, Ohio.

The wood one is from Sidney, ohio.

 

I think that Peirce is correct when he says that Johnny has the largest collection of wheelstops and bumpers! Here are 3 more which, he can explain:

#2

Thanks, Russ!

The first two shots were taken at the "L" line Rockaway Parkway station in Brooklyn. It's the last stop on the "L" and I guess you can tell by the trash, it isn't one of the best neighborhoods in the City. It's also home to the Canarsie Yard.

The 3rd shot was taken in Penn Station at a NJT track.

 

The signal on the second pic would seem to be overkill! But there are locations over here where similar odd things occur...

 

Here's another one. And for Flash's benefit: just to prove that there's a prototype for anything I discovered this in the grand metropolis of Chinese Camp, CA, just outside of Yosemite:

 

Well, that should stop it, all right! Looks like it stopped the tank car.

 

I have just read this topic, but I did not find answer to a question which interests me.Bumper stop of this type(photo) or who looks like it they were used on the US networks (Big networks or secondary networks)

 

Just sad to see that some members have passed away. RIP.
