Re: Make up a Dream Railroad Crossing(s)
To make up, I'll do 5, and all of them are on an abandoned line, the line has been abandoned since 2008 due to money issues following the recession.
Owner of crossings: Formerly CSX/Conrail, sold in July 2021.
Crossing #19:
25th Street, Meredith, KY.
First Signal (only one remaining):
-WCH Base
-WCH Game Mechanism (rare worded version)
-2 Pairs of WCH 8" Lights, 1 Pair of Safetran 8" Lights (Incandescent)
-WCH Mechanical Bell 1st Generation
-Formerly had NEG Incandescent Gate Lights, Gate Removed.
The Second Signal was the same minus the Safetran 8" Lights.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Crossings #20 & #21:
24th Street (US 129) + 23rd Street, Meredith, KY.
(None of the signals remain, 24th Street was widened in 2020, 23rd Street was realigned around the same time.)
24th Street had 2 WRRS Cantilevers that held WRRS 8" Lights (overhead) and WCH 8" Lights (mast), one signal had a WRRS 1203 Mechanical Bell, the other had a WCH 1st Generation Mechanical Bell.
The gate masts had WRRS Bases and GRS/WRRS Type D Gate Mechanisms, NEG Gate Lights were on them.
23rd Street had 2 gateless signals that were completely WRRS, Including the Lights and the Bells.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Crossing #22:
22nd Street, Meredith, KY.
(This crossing was getting new signals installed, but were never completed, so both the new and old signals stand.)
Both New Signals:
-Safetran Base
-GS Type 2 E-Bell
(No lights got installed on both of them)
Both Old Signals:
-RACO Base
-2 Pairs of RACO 8" Lights (Incandescent)
-RACO Mechanical Bell
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Crossing #23:
21st Street, Meredith, KY.
Only 2 old crossbucks stand by, both are very dirty as there are kids nearby that throw dirt and mud onto them.
There is interestingly enough a relay case nearby, and there was once a Safetran Mechanical Bell.

Re: Make up a Dream Railroad Crossing(s)
Crossing #24:
IN-34, Rouge, IN
Owner: CSX
Signal #1 (Knockdown Replacement):
-WCH Base
-WCH Gate Mechanism Type 4
-WCH 12x24" Lights (WCH 2nd Generation LEDs)
-WCH Type 4 Electronic Bell
-RECO LED Gate Lights
Signal #2:
-RACO Base
-RACO Gate Mechanism
-WCH 12x20" Lights (Incandescent)
-No Bell*
-RECO LED Gate Lights
* = There was once a bell on this signal, it was a RACO Mechanical Bell, however, they never replaced it, and thus there is still no cap on the signal.
------------------------------------------
Crossing Update #1 (Update of Crossing #15):
County Route B & County Route ER (Walden Street #2 and Walter Street #1), Shallow Beach, WI
Owner: NS
In March 2021, this crossing had 4 gateless signals, all with Safetran 12x20" Lights, and the County Route B signals had a Safetran Mechanical Bell and GS Type 1.
Well, in August 2021, the bells were both replaced with GS Type 3 Electronic Bells, however the rest of the signals were the same... until November.
In November 2021, severe winds came to Shallow Beach and thus all of the signals were damaged. In result, all the signals were replaced.
NEW SIGNAL INFO (all 4 signals are the same):
-Siemens Double Sided Base
-Siemens Imprinted Gate Mechanism
-Safetran 12x20" Lights (Incandescent oddly enough)
-GS Type 3 Electronic Bells (the 2 from County Route B's old signals were reused, and 2 more were added to ER)
-RECO LED Gate Lights
------------------------------------------
Crossing Update #2 (Update of Crossing #18)
IL Route 39 (Loveland Street), Filmore, IL
Owner: UP
Sadly, the WABCO signal that had the AL-70 on it was replaced in November.
New Signal Info:
Siemens Base
Siemens Imprinted Gate Mechanism
2 pairs of WCH 12x24" Lights (WCH 2nd Gen. LEDs)
NEG E-Bell
4" RECO LED gate lights
The other signal here, which looks exactly like this one above, is still the same, although one of the lights has been bent and is now facing left.

Left Signal:

There used to be 8" Griswold incandescent lights on the EM's until 2021, where UP installed cantilevers and remove those lights in favor of the GE pixalated LED's. UP moved the Griswold bells from the EM's to the top of the cantilevers.

Re: Make up a Dream Railroad Crossing(s)
Here is some abandoned ones near an Airport.
Owner of Crossings: Airport/UP
This line went defunct in November 2021 when the deal between the Airport and UP Expired, there are no plans to get a new line owner, if so, the line will need to be rebuilt.
Crossing #25:

-NEG E-Bell
-Siemens Gate Mechanism
-Alstom LED Gate Lights (the gate is hinged due to an overpass)
Signal #2:
-Siemens Base
-NEG E-Bell
-Siemens Gate Mechanism
-Alstom LED Gate Lights (the gate is regular, since it's not under a overpass)
There are no lights here for some reason.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Crossing #26
Gate 2, Airport, IA
Signal #1 - Damaged (The signal is leaning badly) - Appears this came from Kennedy Road in Loganville, IA
-WCH Base
-WCH Type 3 Gate Mechanism
-2 pairs of WCH 12x20" Lights (Older, Incandescent)
-WCH Mechanical Bell (Generation 1)
-Formerly WCH Gate Lights (The gate was destroyed when the signal got hit)

Re: Make up a Dream Railroad Crossing(s)
2 abandoned crossings here, 2 updates.
Crossing #27:
20th Street, Meredith, KY.
Owner of crossing: Formerly CSX/Conrail, sold in July 2021 to the town, and is planned to become a trail by 2024.
Remaining Signal:
-Harmon Base
-2 pairs of Harmon 12x24" Lights (Incandescent)
-GS Type 2 Electronic
The other signal was an older WRRS signal, that featured WRRS 8" Lights and a WRRS Base.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Crossing #28:
19th Street & KY Route 234, Meredith, KY.
Owner of crossings: Formerly CSX/Conrail, sold in July 2021 to the town, and is planned to become a trail by 2024.
These signals are gone, as a roundabout was constructed here in January 2022. The relay case still lasted here until February, when a truck crashed and slammed into it.
All of the signals had WCH Bases, WCH Gate Mechanisms with RECO LED Gate Lights, WCH 12x24" and WCH 12x20" Lights, and 2 signals had WCH Mechanical Bells.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Crossing Updates #3:
Gate 1, Airport, IA
Owner of Crossing: Airport/UP
After negotiation, UP has renewed the contract and the line is to be reopened in April.
The signals have gotten lights at last, they are Safetran 12x24" Lights with GE Dotted LEDs, and they oddly enough replaced one of the NEG E-Bells (the one on the hinged gate signal) with a GS Type 3.
An extra cantilever has also been added for visibility, it is a Progress Rail cantilever with more of the same lights mentioned.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Crossing Updates #4:
Gate 2, Airport, IA
Owner of Crossings: Airport/UP
The Older WCH signal has been replaced and is now a cantilever.
New signal info:
-Progress Rail Cantilever
-Siemens Gate Mechanism
-2 pairs of Safetran 12x24" Lights (GE Dotted LEDs)
-GS Type 3 E-Bell
-RECO LED Gate Lights
The old signal however is still nearby, as well as the other gated signal from before.
