Re: December Photo of the Month
Here is my submission: The signals at Dodds St. in Divernon, IL are activated by a signal maintainer. In the few months before this picture was taken, the crossing surface was replaced. and the Safetran incandescent lights were replaced with Harmon LED's. Here is the old crossing and as you can see, it was way overdue for replacement http://www.rxrsignals.net/Illinois/A-K/ ... odds/5.jpg

Re: December Photo of the Month
Look, no gates. For next month, can we have f ed up crossings? I have plenty of pictures of those.
If you care, it's in Georgetown, DE.

I speak my mind, if you don't like that oh well. I'll have you fill out a hurt feelings report and submit that to my office.
