I tried to get some footage there back in 2007, just before the track work that eliminated the diamond. The station name was Oleander. Although it is no longer mentioned in the timetable, it is still used by local railfans to describe the area. The view from the overpass was all but completely blocked when I was there leaving only the option of walking in from NW 12 St. By the time I had gotten the nerve to do it, track work had begun. Great to see that someone got it on video. Fav'd
I was just looking at Google maps and saw that FEC's tracks only go to 12th street now. They used to go to down to Kendall. They would bring a couple of cars to the lumber yard on Bird Road.
