A return trip to the crossing on 3-26-22 finds that the WCH gate mechanism on the second signal here was replaced with a re-used Invensys Rail gate mechanism!

 

As a fun fact, this gate mech had previously served at Broad Street in Ozark.

The crossing was also active due to a malfunction, as the Invensys Rail gate mech here had failed to raise all the way and was sitting at about a 45° angle! I did call this into CSX, for what it's worth.
