...What about weeds?...

To my surprise there is very little weed. I learned the area of and around the tracks is very intensive strayed with chemicals to suppress any weed. Only unused industry tracks have some weed. The dry climate and the lack of soil prevents a lot of weed as it is known in more moistly areas. Also most property is clean from weed.
This photo shows an area with unusual amount of vegetation.


Used tracks look like this (Malabar Yard)


Even not so well maintained areas have little to no weed. I think the climate makes it hard for weed to start growing in small cracks of the concrete.


Only some untouched areas look like this. But there are only very few open lots in Vernon and that is not typical.


It might sound strange but it was the primary reason to visit Vernon to get such impressions. That is something hard to lean from the best photos.
