The
eastern signal. A small oddity is that this signal has no track
sign while the other side does. Both signals had incandescent
main lights at the time.

The western
signal. For being a 90s signal, how in the hell did this get a
US&S teardrop?? And how has it lasted this long?
The depot in
Marion. Note the newer vader signals in the distance that are
still arranged in C&O fashion with the green at the bottom and red
on top.

In May 2017, we see all of the lights
were upgraded to LED, and the relay bungalow was replaced. The
teardrop lives on.
NOVEMBER 2025 UPDATE: Sir Fluent here. Since
Tommy was last out here, a small change was made to this crossing.

In August 2025, I discovered that
the eastern signal had its crossbuck replaced and was finally given a
tracks sign. The gate arm was also replaced. It was replaced first in
2018, then the track signs were added a year later.
