This crossing used to have no gates at the 2000s that has changed with old WCH Gate Mechanisms with 12x20 Lights. But replaced with new Siemens Signals in 2023. Anyways this crossing has 8” Safetran Incandescent Lights with probably the same brackets and junction box That was replaced in 2000s with the gates. and both were replaced. Probably the emergency info was attached in 2019-2021.
Crossing rating 9.6/10 It’s a pretty neat crossing and pretty cool. This crossing is helpful because it has train signals too indicate if trains are near or not.
