More new updates on Adelaide Metro:
At Fussell Place, Alberton, the last GEC lights on the network were removed, with UGL/Alstom lights replacing the old lights on the gated signals. However, the gateless signals have retained their lights, including the very old McK&H XB/XD lights on the north ...

Re: Australian Railroad Crossing Signals
Good finds!
I was lucky enough to get coverage of both Menindee Road with old crossbucks and photos of the abandoned McK&H crossing, so I am hoping Iodide Street will still have the GRS mechs on my next visit, whenever it is.
Here's TheRailRanger's video on the abandoned crossing, credits to him ...

Re: Australian Railroad Crossing Signals
Hi all. I got back into filming crossings earlier this month and ended up getting plenty of footage while in Victoria and the northern part of South Australia. I have edited the first video which covers the Nunn Street, Benalla crossing. This is the last mainline Victorian crossing with a teardrop ...

Re: Australian Railroad Crossing Signals
Just noticed that this crossing on the disused Mount Gambier line in Penola, SA still has its signals intact as of December last year! :TUP1:

Re: Australian Railroad Crossing Signals
Very nice pictures and finds everyone.
I haven’t posted here in a while, so I thought I’d report on some crossing “wins” in South Australia this year.
Earlier this year, I found the very much pleasant occurrence that the WCH 2nd Generation M bell on the southern side of the Marion Road, Plympton ...

Re: Australian Railroad Crossing Signals
Nice pictures SBMetro!
Something seems off about those new crossbucks, I think it may be the angle the crossbucks are at, they seem smaller than 45 degrees. It may also be the font although I have a bit of trouble picking the difference :Confused:
On a recent trip I ended up exploring the last 3 ...

Re: Australian Railroad Crossing Signals
Haven’t posted here in a while, but I thought I’d share some of my finds from a recent trip to Queensland.
First off, there appears to be a “Pearson’s xing signal” manufactured by Mck&h preserved in non operational condition at the Ipswich railway museum. That, some signage (including 1 piece ...

Re: Australian Railroad Crossing Signals
Rip FS Gate Mechs ): this year there has been loads of good stuff being replaced which sucks.
I don’t remember if I already said this but the Cormack Rd crossing in Wingfield that Mck&h Aust filmed (with WCH first gen m bell and Westinghouse incandescents) got new signals, with a combo of a wch e ...

Re: Australian Railroad Crossing Signals
Change of topic, I made a visit to the Morphett vale miniature railway and found out they have an operational WRRS bell at one of the crossings! It’s the only active protection at a crossing there but still very cool.
Woodville road on the Outer Harbor line still has normal crossbucks so that’s a ...

Re: Australian Railroad Crossing Signals
Today we went for a drive to Melbourne so I could film some stuff for my YouTube channel and here is what I got filmed:
- I filmed the railway infrastructure at the Sunshine and Roofing and did a video making the teardrop bell and hybrid bell sound by using a metal post to reach both bells ...
