| INDOT pictures from 2001 showing a late Conrail setup. The northern signal had a Safetran gate mechanism and no bell, while the southern signal had a WCH gate mechanism and a Safetran Hybrid Bell. Both signals had 12"x24" Safetran incandescents. |

| By 2011, the northern signal had been replaced with a newer Safetran signal with 12"x20" incandescents and a Safetran 2000s gate mechanism. I didn't get a proper video, but you can see the see this setup from 2013 in this video. In 2015, NS did a complete replacement here and replaced both signals with newer Safetran signals and a new relay bungalow. |
