Google Maps Scavenger Hunt

Here's an active crossing in Florida:

https://www.google.com/maps/@27.8945491 ... 312!8i6656
Looks like there was some signal maintenance going on at the time, because here's the maintainer:

What are the side-lights here supposed to face?

This crossing appears to have some RACO 12x20 inch lights at it!

This is not something you see everyday for a Railroad crossing. https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7229147 ... 6656?hl=en
----------------------
This railroad crossing is completely controlled by traffic signals. If this railroad crossing was used by light rail instead of streetcars, there probably would be crossing signals here. https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7226117 ... 6656?hl=en
----------------------
Kind of an odd setup. https://www.google.com/maps/@41.0945552 ... 1664?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@41.0952974 ... 1664?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@41.0952974 ... 1664?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@41.0957587 ... 1664?hl=en

Active crossing, Republic, Ohio. https://www.google.com/maps/@41.1197364 ... 1664?hl=en

That crossing was part of the most recent update, IIRC.

I noticed that after I made the post and was looking through the pages part of the update. Kind of a strange coincidence especially considering this crossing is in the middle of nowhere.

Wigwag and other vintage crossing signal at a light rail yard in Sacramento.

Active Crossing, Cleveland, Ohio. https://www.google.com/maps/@41.4999756 ... 6656?hl=en

Odd place to see an inverted "SORS" sign. https://www.google.com/maps/@41.4999756 ... 6656?hl=en

This just weird. This crossing use to be gate-less in 2009. Why would there be an inverted "SORS" sign on a modern gate mast? https://www.google.com/maps/@41.500042, ... 6656?hl=en

Another active crossing in Cleveland, Ohio. https://www.google.com/maps/@41.4979786 ... 6656?hl=en

This crossbuck is really rusty. https://www.google.com/maps/@53.1615285 ... 6656?hl=en

That crossing has actually been posted here already: http://www.rxrsignals.net/Phpbb3/viewto ... =30#p19058

And as for the inverted SORS sign, it's just possibly reuse by the railroad.

It worked! Got rid of that image, plus that project has been disbanded anyways, to busy with other things, and in the middle of finishing the gate signals for trainz anyways.

Here are my finds that I found while the forum was down.

Modern less than 90 degrees two piece crossbuck! https://www.google.com/maps/@40.3582625 ... 6656?hl=en
---------------------------------------------------------
This crossbuck looks very strange. https://www.google.com/maps/@40.3604031 ... 6656?hl=en
---------------------------------------------------------
This is a unique setup. https://www.google.com/maps/@40.3862653 ... 6656?hl=en
There is a cool bridge right next to it too. https://www.google.com/maps/@40.3861499 ... 6656?hl=en
---------------------------------------------------------
I’ve never seen a crossing relay cabinet this far off the ground. https://www.google.com/maps/@40.385624, ... 6656?hl=en
---------------------------------------------------------
Active crossing, Fort Madison, Iowa.

Very old signals! https://www.google.com/maps/place/Intre ... !1e1?hl=en
---------------------------------------------------------
This is not a place I would expect to see cantilever signals! https://www.google.com/maps/@40.3101654 ... 1664?hl=en

I remember seeing a picture of the signal with a bell somewhere online before. Can't remember where though, but I believe it was either a stock image or on RailPictures.

Found this odd crossing on the MNBR:
https://www.google.com/maps/@32.2638766 ... 6656?hl=en
I wonder why the railroad removed the overhead lights from those WRRS cantilevers...

A bit odd:

Classic signals:
