Guess I need to get back out to Athens again soon. Sorry about the large photos, BTW.
And for those of you who are curious, here's how the old set-up looked:

Market Street, Athens, AL
Saw this on Facebook today. Looks like Market Street is being gated, and it'll include pedestrian gates too!

Wow, I don't think I've ever seen a CSX install with the gate mechanism attached to the cantilever.

CSX has done it a few times before, but it certainly ain't common. CSX installed these signals on the ATN's line before they (CSX) sold off the line:ZachL wrote:Wow, I don't think I've ever seen a CSX install with the gate mechanism attached to the cantilever.

It seems to only happen when there isn't room for a separate gate mast... which appears to be the case in both of these examples.freebrickproductions wrote:CSX has done it a few times before, but it certainly ain't common.
