Not quite a switch but....

Ok, this isn't exactly a switch, but I think it ranks up there in the interesting trackwork department. This old curved diamond is located on an industrial lead on UP's Santa Ana Branch in Anaheim. The lead I am standing on is still active and serves a plastics manufacturer that gets 2 cars of plastic pellets about once a week. The other track dead-ends at the fence and looks like it hasn't been used in about 50 years.
