This mark (designated 89.80) is located along the Balitimore and Ohio Railroad. The disk is set in the NE abutment of a bridge crossing a small creek which runs parallel to Sunset Hill road. The mark was recovered in poor condition as it is partially covered by a railroad tie as well as tar. However, it is recognizable and it still intact as set in the abutment.
