After recording the siren test, I went out and caught NS 163 heading to Sheffield with a monster ARFP/Safe Playing 7 engine lash-up of a cab-signalless NS Dash-9 leading an NS SD60E, NS SD60M, NS Dash-9, UP SD70ACe, and two more NS Dash-9s. Haven't seen a lash-up like this in a while, so it was quite a nice surprise!
I had heard that Greenbrier Parkway was now open, so I can out here to see if it was or not. Well, y'all can see which answer is true! So yea, the newest crossing along the NS Memphis District East End is finally open! It's been a fun experience watching the crossing get built, and I must say that the end result looks rather nice. The road itself isn't too busy due to being a more out of the way route to get to anything along Old Highway 20 or Greenbrier Road, but once the road gets completed, businesses build up along this road, and/or Old Highway 20 has the damaged bridge along it replaced, it'll probably get busier. The road is a nice drive though.
Also, according to the recently posted FRA Inventory Report (filed September 26, 2017), the crossing is at MP A355.05, the NS Memphis District East End gets 23 trains a day, and the crossing is listed as being located "near Mooresville" (which, it kinda is) despite being within Huntsville's city limits. If you want to confirm this for yourself, just go to the FRA's website (listed below) and put in the DOT # of 960236R.
