DSC08042 - Daryl's railroad tattoo (San Francisco)

This rail crossing structure is called a frog (in french, it's called "coeur de croisement").
Error #1: He forgot to draw the switch command lever to move those needles. Error #2: Those needles are incorrecly drawn, as the two inside rails (going toward the frog) should be the one continuous, not the rails going straight up. That's the only 2 technical error I noticed on his entire tattoo.

Daryl's amazing railroad tattoo (San Francisco)

Train tracks, switches and tunnels cover his entire body, front and back, from head to toes (litterally), in a perfectly symetrical and seamless pattern. He designed the tattoo and said it took 200 hours of work to realise the work.

Daryl spent many years of his life "freight train hopping", which involves countless days of walking long miles along desert tracks.

The structure formed when two rails are crossing is called a frog (in french, it's called "coeur de croisement").

There are two technical errors in this part of the tattoo. Can you find them without looking at the Notes on the photo?

Daryl designed the tattoo. I don't know who actually made it, he told me it was a friend of him who works in a tattoo parlor.
