*originally recorded on 12-31-18*

Signal on the left: 6 pairs of Harmon 12x24 inch lights with Harmon Dotted LEDs, a General Signals Type 2 electronic bell, a Safetran gate mechanism, and NEG LED gate lights.
Signal on the right: 5.5 pairs of Harmon 12x24 inch lights with Harmon Dotted LEDs, 1 Harmon 12x24 inch light with a General Signals MAX LED, a General Signals Type 2 electronic bell, a Safetran gate mechanism, and NEG LED gate lights.

This crossing isn't really anything too special, just a pretty typical early 2000s NERR install that hasn't had many changes to it, other than one of the LEDs having been replaced. Like other crossings from around this time, the bells here ring until the crossing shuts off. However, the LED itself was a bit of a neat find, as this makes this crossing one of just three crossings in the state of Tennessee to use General Signals MAX LEDs! How I guess that the General Signals MAX LED got installed here was that one of the LEDs died so the NERR chose to find a similar-looking LED to replace it with, rather than plopping in a new Dialight LED or WCH 2nd Generation LED and calling it a day.
They/Them for me, please.
