The eastern signal. Seems there used to be an older cantilever next to the current one seen on picture 9.

The relay case in the southwest quadrant.
The
tracks curve sharply before going straight for a bit. Then they turn
beyond the trees and end up at the only customer on this spur.
The grade is all concrete, although very miscolored.
A return visit in June 2024 shows no changes have occured to the crossing.

The crossing in action! UP 562 and UP 1454 drop off two tanker cars at the nearby industry that this line solely serves.
The crossing turns on with only a handful of seconds to spare before
the train goes over. The locomotives spent about 15-20 minutes at the
industry before returning to the crossing.
The nearby traffic lights appear to be completely unassociated with the
crossing, and no lights turned red when the crossing was active.
