More then a bunch, for years the main road quick out of town was always blocked with trains as they had a switching station right there too.

So they build a new main road out of Oregon right into Toledo, quick straight shot, and you know what the RR did. Don't even need to say it.

They moved the switching station a half mile down so they could block the new main road all the time.

Making the old main road the quick escape.
