If you notice, the gated signals were replaced between 2007 and 2013 and the gateless signals don't have any, so there aren't any there anymore.
They/Them for me, please.

It's also worth pointing out that there is now an overpass for the crossing.

Also, this crossing also appears to be getting removed, though i ain't certain.

i don't think so on the second crossing as that's fairly modern in question and the bridge in question appears to be parallel to the tracks.
very lucky to live two-three blocks away from three teardrop bells. one of which i see at least once a week!

These two posts should've been edited together. Please remember to do that in the future.

Also:
Main Street, Vernon, MI:
https://www.google.com/maps/@42.9391062 ... 1664?hl=en
main st. in vernon mi is already on the site

http://www.rxrsignals.com/Michigan/Vernon/Bennington/
I had a feeling it might've been, but I didn't think to check the site and the only crossing I remembered from there (at the time) was the wigwag. :Doh:
which was removed a decade ago after some idiot knocked it down

Doesn't really matter if it's rural or not; there are a ton of no-bell crossings here in Indiana and a lot are in cities.
