Old railway

I like Tampere that in the area that currently holds small industrial and stores you can find old rails. It is always a great time to cycle there and think when was the last time there actually went a train. A quite a while I think because tracks was all rusty and in those place where rails crosses a street, no cars slowed down at all. And today I noticed sad thing, they were removing tracks from streets so no trains at all anymore. It looked like they are still going to keep rails elsewhere, but it is still only a matter of time until they are removed also, i think.

Old junction is growing trees nowadays, I think that train would have some problems to get through...

Old signal in the junction. These can't be seen in the modern rails anymore which is a shame.

Old rail goes over a bridge and is still connected (probably) to the current rails.
