Indiana Crossings

Post by owensri »

I've been looking in Indiana at some crossings that I could potentially have if I get this job I'm supposed to have an interview for hopefully next week, once the guy gets back from Ohio...and I came across this crossing:

Horrible maintenance if you ask me...no crossbuck and upside down gate :Cry1:

I also hate that there are no bells at alot of crossings in Indiana... :Confused:

There are a few crossings in Indiana with inverted track signs. One in English:

One in Evansville:

Another in Evansville:

I've been working on that map to assist with the hunt for teardrop bells.

OK... what is up with the 1st crossing in Evansville?

I'm guessing the road used to be two-way and was changed to one-way? So they just flipped the crossbuck and track sign??? Not at all good in my opinion. That signal needs to be moved, or another signal added on the approach... like the crossing just up the street (after the underpass).

Shoddy work! :Curse1:
