f*** NO!!!!!!
Also its not the gate mech, its the damn bigass gate hitting the cantilever because the sheer bolts are busted on the gate and it sits so close to the cantilever.

Older CSX crossing, then some random catches, and then FEC. Which manufacturer's LEDs are those? I did zoom in so you could see the diode configuration.

I was actually at an FEC crossing the other day & it had 8 signals, 2 of them cantilevers. The median signals had RSI LED's while the rest were Safetran Incandescent lights. Crossing had 4 WCH Mechanical & 2 Safetran Mechanical Bells.

Agreed, Kight. Most 8" lights left the SFL area that's for sure.

CARIBE RAILFANNING FOR THE WIN! Note they tilted the pennent cantilever to the right so maybe some dumba** idiot drivers on 72nd actually SEE the crossing :LOL3:

Of course a chase in Miami means signals and lots of em.

Emphasized is NW 79 ST, MP SX1034.00. :TUP2:
