Private crossing in a public one?

Post by gedunk »

Sacramento Ca

This is a well signaled, 3-way crossing. However, on the shoulder of the road are two additional signals, which are marked with the "Private Xing" sign. I don't think a road shoulder can also function as a private road, so this is confusing.

The signs are actually pedestrian crossing signs. https://www.google.com/maps/@38.5630538 ... 312!8i6656
It looks like there is a lane for pedestrians on the road. https://www.google.com/maps/@38.5631724 ... 312!8i6656

These signals are just pedestrian signals. Still a pretty strange setup though.

I counted at least 6 Safetran Hybrid bells at that crossing. Would be neat to see a video of it in service some day.
They/Them for me, please.

Google caught a train there twice! Once in May 2014, and again in August 2014:
