    This track switch was a foot deep in the dirt along the North shore in Duluth. Despite nearly a hundred years buried, you can still read the words "Lake Superior" and "Chicago" if you look closely on the outer edge of the rusty circle. It weighs a little over a pound. I put coins in the photo to convey its relative size.
