They're pretty common in California

Yup. Lynwood has a few.

Don't trespass on private property peeps.

This would be a great crossing to film at, if only CSX didn't use the crossing twice a week! :Cry1: https://www.google.com/maps/@28.0326474,-82.4431172,3a,35.7y,91.48h,94.12t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sp5hPlvF6Upp9lwEaG50MIg!2e0!5s20160801T000000!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en No it's not a great crossing to film a...

This crossing in person does not active together. It's really a sloppy activation. Probably because UP doesn't do their job in this area, but not all signals are owned by them on this RoW. Here's why: https://www.google.com/maps/place/New+West+Growers,+Inc.,+110+W+Greenleaf+Blvd,+Compton,+CA+90220/@...

Quadrant and Ped gets with Harmon Fading LED like our Compton crossings on the Blue Line, DAH BRITE FÉUCHA(idk )

Looks like the eventual plan is to put rails back anyway... so in a way it makes sense, as the signals will already be in place. Why it was even turned into a bus way in the first place I'll never know. In the late 90s there was talk about making it a Metrolink line, not sure what happened to that....

Well maybe because a bus line wants to be a train when it grows up.

Los Angeles' Metro Orange Line, our beloved Metro Orange Line BUSWAY is apparently trying to become a train without rails.
