On 9-28-24, I made a return trip to
this crossing and discovered all of the lights were upgraded
to LEDs, meaning all of the 8"x20" lights were replaced.
Along with that, both gate arms were replaced and all the
gate lights were also upgraded to LED.

I (Tommy) also came out here in April 2025 for the LED upgrades before I knew Sir Fluent got their own pictures.
In the 3rd video below, the bell was appearently dead. However,
when I caught this crossing on September 28, 2024, the bell was
working again. But then it died again as seen in the 4th video.
You can the bell functioning with the LEDs in this video here: https://youtu.be/1tqulvDd6CU?si=UeDmBo34uEJyWZF6&t=113
