Just in case you're wondering, yes this is the same San Timoteo Rd. that has 8" griswolds near Beaumont, CA. This crossing is about 10 miles west of that crossing.

 

As you can see, there are the usual WCH type 2 e-bells, and 12"x20" incandescent lights, except for picture 2 which has 12"x24" Harmon fading L.E.D. lights.

Note the red light on pictures 7 (as well as the relay case and crossing ID) and 11. A train recently went by here, so that's why the red light is lit up. Also note the 40 MPH speed limit as seen in picture 8.

I was at this crossing in 2003, and there were different "2 Tracks" signs here. The old ones were better ones than these currently are.

The crossing has changed yet again. All lights are now 12"x24". The front facing light frames have Harmon fading L.E.D. lights, and the rear light frames are WCH L.E.D. lights. Note in picture 14 that there is a newer crossbuck than what's seen in pictures 2, 4, and 6.
