This crossing is located on the Midwest Central Railroad which is
inside the county fairgrounds in Mt. Pleasant.
This crossing is at the entrance on the east side of the
fairgrounds. For some reason, both signals are on the east side
of the tracks.

The
southeastern signal. Nice to see the cat eyed crossbuck on
here. This is also one of the few remaining gates on the property
with the old style striping

The northeastern
signal. This somehow got WCH Red LED gate lights when most other
gates received 4" NEG LEDs. This crossing features two of the
three FS bells on the property as well.
A return visit by Hopen111 in
September 2024 shows no immediate changes to the crossing. The speaker
on the cantilever still works, but the southeastern signal's gate is
not lowering.
