This crossing is located on the former Lake Erie & Western mainline that ran from Fostoria to Sandusky, but is now a spur that connects to the Toledo District and dead ends at opposite ends of Fremont.

In November 2016, we see the DOT signs were turned to face forward.

In early 2017, the 8" lights were replaced by 12"x20" GE Uniform Look LEDs.  For some reason, they didn't add rear lights in the process, so both signals still only have front facing lights.

The northern signal.  I included extreme closeups of all the lights since these are pretty much at eye level.

The southern signal.  I still don't know why rear lights were added.  Strange.

JANUARY 2026 UPDATE: Sir Fluent here. 7 years after the lights were upgraded to LED, both signals were sadly replaced with newer gated signals, along with State Street #2 and Rawson Avenue's signals.
