Many trace fossils - what made them?

Collected in Woodbine, so many different traces on both sides of rocks really curious what made them, esp the 'plowing', there's a single and double plow.  There's an odd tube like thing with ' inards' coming out, and lastly a really random one, single trail with piece of something stuck in it.  Hopefully someone recognizes some of them.

I would say the tube bits with the lines running across them are Crinoid stems. I am not an expert though so hang on for someone a little better qualified!

'Tubes' could be some sort of coral.  We recently found a coral that had a similar shape, where two tubes are fused together.

I am no expert by any means though.  Just a guess.
