WABCO Gate Mechs with A-Frame Gates, that's something I've never seen!

Just down the line is this gem of a crossing.
Equipped with Griswolds and two Beautiful Black & White A-Frames!

Here's one in Colorado! I think this line may be out of service or unused.

GE B40-8W's are the best. Well, uh, maybe with some exceptions...?

Here's a list of some.

These one's are destroyed.https://www.google.com/maps/@38.8325757 ... 6656?hl=en

As well as these! https://www.google.com/maps/@38.8421715 ... 6656?hl=en

One signal is overgrown. One of the gates are still intact! https://www.google.com/maps/@38.8449011 ... 6656?hl=en

Bonus! Gateless crossing, but the relay case... https://www.google.com/maps/@38.4489149 ... 6656?hl=en

Another weird gateless crossing... https://www.google.com/maps/@38.3723175 ... 6656?hl=en

Capouse Avenue, Scranton, PA:
https://www.google.com/maps/@41.4230091 ... 312!8i6656
Pretty classic 1950's/60's? WRRS installation, though the streetview was taken two years ago so their fate is unknown.

Delaware and Hudson Installation. Their Scranton Depot existed south of Gibson Street (and what's left of that crossing)

Here's a pair in San Rafael, CA, on the NWP:
https://maps.google.com/?ll=38.01851,-1 ... 6,,0,-3.92

Also, a couple more RIGHT NEXT TO San Rafael station:
https://maps.google.com/?ll=37.972471,- ... 5,,0,-1.58

Unfortunately, their days are probably numbered, as SMART is currently upgrading this line.
These have now been removed :OhWell:

(Also I have updated the map I posted earlier)
