Spring Park #2, Tuscumbia, AL
The crossing signal has 2 pairs of WCH lights with 1st Generation WCH LEDs (nonfunctional), a WCH gate mechanism, WCH gate lights (nonfunctional), and a WCH electronic bell (nonfunctional).
Only the gate mechanism on this signal works.
They/Them for me, please.

One would think for safety's sake that they'd need some kind of warning to advise the gate would be lowering.
I think we can all agree that the majority of humans have trouble with common sense and there's a lawsuit there just begging to happen.

The signal is functional again! Well, at least more functional than it used to be two years ago. Turns out the bell is just straight-up dead, which is sad since it's only one of seven confirmed WCH e-bells here in Alabama.
They/Them for me, please.

*originally recorded on 7-8-23*
The lone signal here has 2 pairs of WCH 12x20 inch lights with WCH 1st Generation LEDs, a WCH Type 3 electronic bell, a WCH gate mechanism, and WCH gate lights.
After getting Spring Park #1 filmed, I went over to this one as well. After a bit of waiting, I was able to get this guy filmed as well.
This crossing has had some work done to it since I last filmed it as well, with the WCH e-bell here now working as it should. Admittedly, this has been functional for a few years now, as kyleb06 filmed this crossing with the bell ringing a few years back, but I only just now got around to shooting it as well. This signal is also in overall better shape, though the base gate light is dead, and the tip gate light flashes while the middle doesn't. The LEDs here have also all fallen into the lenses, like with the other signal, but they still light-up nice and bright.
