Mike's Railroad Crossing Forum

This is a long-range preview since I don't have a full set of pictures of this crossing yet, but I wanted to grab a few shots while I had the opportunity in case CP decides to mess with it.

This crossing is located a short distance west of Watertown. It is one of a handful of crossings in the area with this setup, which all together are some of the last 8" crossings left on the CP main across Wisconsin.



The signals are all Safetran, with 8" clear L.E.D.s in the lights. The Safetran mechanical bell rings until the gates go down, then starts ringing again when they start to open until the signals deactivate.

Here are all the videos I have up which contain some footage of the crossing:

8 inch clear LEDs. Nice catch!

Just an update on Provimi Road. The 8" lights have been replaced with 12", and the crossing now looks like this:
