PUCO pictures from the late 90s or early 2000s showing two crossbucks protecting a rural crossing. In the early 2000s, NS replaced these with new Safetran signals.

The northern signal. The southern signal is pretty much the same except without a bell.
I was apparently in a rush back in 2018 and only photographed one side. I finally returned in 2025 for a full retake. The only change between 2018 and 2025 was that the gates were replaced. The crossing remains incandescent.
