Old Hickory Boulevard (TN 45) #2, Nashville, TN
*originally recorded on 1-26-18*
Signal on the left: 1 pair of Federal Signal 8 inch lights and 3 pairs of Modern Industries 12x20 inch lights.
Signal on the right: 2.5 pairs of Modern Industries 8 inch lights, 1 Federal Signal 8 inch light, 3 pairs of Modern Industries 12x20 inch lights, and a Modern Industries mechanical bell.
This crossing is one of the nicer ones along this line. It features a pair of late L&N cantilever signals that are still mostly original, though it appears that the left-hand cantilever had the original mast lights replaced with a pair of Federal Signal 8 inch lights at some point, likely were re-used from another crossing. The other signal also had a pair of lights added on to it to let the crews know if the crossing was active. One of them is a Federal Signal 8 inch light (which is pretty standard aside from where it's aimed), but the other is a backgroundless, visorless Modern Industries 8 inch light that's mounted upside down, oddly enough.
They/Them for me, please.
