From 2014: Here's the crossing from 2014. This originally had two older CR signals with Model 75 gate mechanisms, 8 inch WCH incandescents for the mast lights and GRS LEX-C 8 inch incandescents for the side lights, NEG incandescents and a WCH Mechanical Bell. The crossing was unfortanutaly upgraded sometime in the mid-late 2010s with the current ones, but they did this in a strange way, being an in-place upgrade. And by doing so, the relay bungalow from the previous setup was used, but they also decided to move the Harmon Fonted crossbuck to the western signal and retain the bell from the previous signal, while also reusing an Invensys Rail gate mechanism. The crossbuck on the western signal had been replaced recently, but the WCH Mechanical Bell remains here.
