PUCO pictures from the late 90s shows a pair of late 90s CR signals with 12"x24" Safetran incandescents, WCH gate mechanisms and a Safetran Hybrid Bell. These were installed in 1998 replacing a pair of crossbucks.

Then sometime in the 2010s, the extra signal was replaced with its current appearance. I'm not entirely sure why it exactly replaced the previous signal early on before the rest of the crossing. The bell was also replaced with a General Signals E-Bell around this time. Picture O5 provides a better look at the former northern signal. If you also look at Pictures O7 and O8, you can see the current relay bungalow sitting there as this crossing would be upgraded with the current setup seen below.
