The northern signal. Conrail
installed the Safetran lights at some point. This was probably
all GRS lights originally, or maybe some WRRS mixed in.

The northern pedestrian gate. I've
never seen a WRRS gate mechanism in this style before.
Now here's something really bizarre.
Google Street View pictures from September 2019 show that the lights
were upgraded to LED with what appear to be Leotek EV LEDs in flat back
WCH frames. This happened as the signals on Oak St. #1 were replaced. I
returned here in September 2020 to get update photos, but when I got
here, a new gated mast signal and gated cantilever had replaced the old
cantilevers, and the pedestrian gates were removed without replacement.

The southern pedestrian gate had its
gate mechanism removed and the mast was remounted on a double sided
Safetran base. The lights remain.
