state highway 386 but the street view is from 2009 so it is most likely gone

found two more

but sadly they are gone

All of the ones on the TTI are gone, sadly. Along with the railroad itself, it seems.

well that sucks!

What is TTI?

I also made a large post about the TTI several months ago in the Tracks out of service thread.

Czechoslovakia hasn't existed in years, dude. They split and became the Czech Republic (Czechia) and Slovakia . Also, wishbone gates are very common there as they appear to be the current standard.

On that note, Crossing Signals in Slovakia and Czechia are based on designs from the Soviet Union, which themselves are based on American Designs from GRS and WRRS. The similarities are particularly noticeable with these photos from a Russian Modelling Website.[/quote]

This also explains the use of American-Style Wishbone Gates.https://www.google.com/maps/@55.9269066 ... 312!8i6656
