The lights on this signal are all US&S 8 inch lights, with the front lights still featuring their original vandal-guards!

 

Also, note how the rear lights are off-set. This was done by the ACL to keep the original wooden gate arm from striking the rear lights, due to how sharp of an angle this crossing is at!
