Signal on the left: 4 pairs of Federal Signal 8 inch lights with Alstom 8 inch LEDs.
Signal on the right: 2.5 pairs of Federal Signal 8 inch lights with Alstom 8 inch LEDs, 1 WRRS 8 inch light with an Alstom 8 inch LED, and a Federal Signal mechanical bell.

I decided to go back to this crossing and get a daytime video of it in action.

This may have been talked about before... but obviously the traffic lights are red all around when the signals are activated? What a mess that was for the 5 minutes the signals stayed on with no train.

The signals here activate as long as at least two of the wheels are inside the detection circuit. There is no relay for them to use to time out after a while so they'll stay active as long as the track circuit at this crossing is completed.
