Line is dormant, but here's something you certainly don't see often at a public crossing. Has a matching inverse SORS as well.

Oh nice! Glad to see another inverted cats-eyed crossbuck is still around, not too surprised it's dead though. I believe the pair on the site (in Iowa, IIRC?) is also at a crossing that's sadly now dead.

You're probably thinking of the former museum railroad that went through Hooper, Nebraska. Unfortunately there were some white button copy crossbucks in Freemont that were lost from scrapping the line also.
