At least concerning #3, I suspect either the USCG or USACE (I don't know which has regulatory authority at that location) will insist on improved access, some sort of opening bridge. It's hard to convince either to permit something that impacts existing traffic.
On a related note, does anyone know what the spur that runs along the beach just west of the pad 39 area was used for? I've seen those tracks a few times over the years and have wondered what they got used for way out there.
I believe the Apollo program received fuel via railroad.
Along the beach and west of the pad are mutually exclusiveThe track along the beach is how the Titan SRM segments were delivered to the ITL and LH2 was delivered to the LC-39 pads.Here is the offloading station.https://goo.gl/maps/xauhJ
Thanks for the link. I'd never followed that track before and now realize that the tracks I was asking about aren't connected to anything now. They end at the South at Titan II Road, just south of a Launch facility (I didn't bother comparing it to a map to see which one it was) and ends in the dunes to the North, line abreast of the Pad 39 complex on the East side, right along the shoreline.
