On 6-7-25, Nicholas Miles made a return trip to this crossing and discovered that all the lights were sadly upgraded to LED and both the crossbucks and gate mechanisms were replaced while the gate arm on the eastern signal was replaced. The rest of the crossing remains unchanged and it thankfully still retains its MI Mechanical Bell.
