Here's something a bit unique found in Rancho Cordova, CA:

Those lights have no visors: https://www.google.com/maps/@38.605558, ... 312!8i6656
Here's a video of the crossing in action... you can see the lights on the bridge a couple of times at least:

Looks like a train was headed for 56th Street! This is the Neve wye spur through Tampa, FL.

Re: Google Maps Scavenger Hunt
The lights on the closer signal aren't Griswold I don't think... kind of spaced odd too. The other one definitely is completely Griswold though.

I'm not so sure about that. I think that signal without the Griswold lights is actually a RACO signal. The base is the same of that to an EM signal as well, but without the gates.brett nc railfanner wrote:Still Griswold!cabman701 wrote:The lights on the closer signal aren't Griswold I don't think... kind of spaced odd too.
