P370-18 is currently going through Riverside after an hour and 15 minute delay due to hitting an abandoned car at Pier Rd. (Not Hager Shore Rd....Hagar Shore Rd is about 4 miles north of there and does not cross CSX.) IDTX 4610 leading.

I went by what the CSX 2008 Time Table shows for crossing info: Hager Shore (Pier) MP CG81.17 DOT #234804L
That's how they had listed it with Pier in parentheses. I checked the U. S. DOT Crossing Inventory & did find they do show it as being Pier Rd.
