This crossing is located on the Plymouth & Lincoln Railroad Winnipesaukee Subdivision.

These signals were installed in 2000, replacing a 1953 B&M GRS install. With the exceptions of one Dialight ball LED insert and a Progress Rail base that replaced the original equipment after a vehicle strike, this crossing is entirely Safetran. The northern and southern signals include extension mounts for the back lights to accommodate the pre-existing telephone poles that would otherwise block visibility of the lights. Note the white strobe light atop the eastern mast, which flashes when the signals are active.

This crossing is operated by the P&L (DBA Granite State Scenic Railway, formerly Hobo & Winnipesaukee Scenic Railroads), but It should be noted excursions from Meredith only operate into downtown Laconia on Sundays in the summer months, and for other special occasions and equipment moves.
