This is an interesting crossing.

I see a US&S Teardrop as well with the crossbuck in front of it and is has those "STOP" lights instead of a mast mount lights

I kind of got excited for a moment because the photographer mentioned in the caption that the old signals were still there in 2012. But it's not the crossing signals he was talking about. :Sad:

Yeah, I feel the same way, based on the map, the images was taken in July 2012 and he said that they're was in place in 2012, so the old signal must of been removed sometime between January to July 2012

No. The photographer's caption was referring to the lineside block signals. The crossing signals were probably replaced years ago.

I didn't see that the lineside block signals was the one that was removed around that time, then it's hard telling when the crossing signals were removed.
