≈29 m from the nearest railway (rail), and its mapped direction points at the track. Cameras on or beside train tracks are sometimes rail-monitoring equipment — train inspection or timing systems — that gets mistagged as an ALPR camera on OpenStreetMap. A camera pointed at the rails is a stronger sign of that. This node is flagged for review; its presence here is not confirmation that it is a license-plate reader.
