3 pairs. The back lights on the first cantilever aren't Lex-C's.

Found a couple of crossings near Bundaberg, Australia. It is a large sugar growing area and there are numerous narrow gauge tracks to transport the sugar cane to the processing mills. Many of the crossings have signals and there are some interesting setups.

This crossing has 2 signals, each with 2 pairs of 8 inch Lex-C's. Note how the second signal is attached to a power pole with a special bracket!

The other crossing has only 1 par of 8 inch Lex-C's, although it's a strange looking signal.

Here is a video of the crossing in action. Skip to 1:13 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eyc60p_0bDY&t=277s

EDIT: Found some more GRS Lex-C lights....

On the topic of Florida and GRS Lex-C lights, how common are they in Florida?

Though they're probably very rare down there, as only the Southern Railway (who had very few lines in Florida) used GRS Lex-C lights here in the south, AFAIK.

That's the only crossing I can think of in Florida that has them. I've considered a trip up there to see it in person, but honestly what would the point be to waste a whole tank of gas just to see a railroad crossing?
