Re: South American Railroad Crossings
This crossing has some unknown 12x20 inch lights. Believe it or not, they used Canadian crossbucks!
https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.573888 ... 6656?hl=en
But by 2014, they were removed and replaced with cheap mechanically operated gates.
https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.573908 ... 6656?hl=en
Very strange crossing, i don't think its working, since theres a worker standing with a STOP/GO sign.
https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.556455 ... 6656?hl=en
There were also another crossing with Canadian crossbucks. For some strange reason, there were mechanically operated gates too.
https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.555957 ... 6656?hl=en
However, by 2014 all of the equipment was removed.

Re: South American Railroad Crossings
This crossing has GS Type 2 bells! Safetran (?) 12x20 inch lights, and US&S Model 95 gate mechanisms!
https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.637691 ... 6656?hl=en
However, they were later removed and replaced with cheap manually operated gates.
https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.637687 ... 6656?hl=en
Whats this binbag for?
https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.637687 ... 6656?hl=en
This is a very strange setup.
https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.697480 ... 6656?hl=en
Judging by the sign, the crossing doesn't seem to be working.
https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.697480 ... 6656?hl=en
Another strange setup, this crossing doesn't seem to be working too.
https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.714216 ... 6656?hl=en
Same crossing, not working.
https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.761843 ... 6656?hl=en
There is Canadian crossbucks on this crossing!
https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.783381 ... 6656?hl=en
Quad gated setup.
https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.813731 ... 6656?hl=en
This crossing actually works!
https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.839667 ... 6656?hl=en
This manually operated crossing has a wigwag with a US&S/WABCO Teardrop bell, however it isn't working!
https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.979821 ... 6656?hl=en
These lights are facing the wrong way!
https://www.google.com/maps/@-34.139205 ... 6656?hl=en
There must've been wigwags or something here once upon a time.
https://www.google.com/maps/@-34.200735 ... 6656?hl=en
This crossing has a modern pair of modern manually operated gates.
https://www.google.com/maps/@-34.536566 ... 6656?hl=en
This crossing has a sign informing people that crossing guards are not available between 22:20 PM and 6:00 AM
https://www.google.com/maps/@-34.5873,- ... 6656?hl=en
This sign on a manually operated crossing says that crossing guards aren't available between 23:00 PM and 7:00 AM

Re: South American Railroad Crossings
I wonder if that crossbuck means something different with that square sign in the middle than one without that square sign, strange enough.
