Linwood Ave, Emerson, NJ

The white GMC had to scurry out of the way of the lowering gate. Probably was honking at the car in front of him too it appears...

That is pretty turned out of place (Lodi St, Hackensack, NJ)
https://www.google.com/maps/@40.8752603 ... 312!8i6656

How the heck does that even happen? I've seen a gate motor get turned because of getting hit, but not the entire signal! And I wonder how long it stayed like that?

That makes a ton of sense there... https://www.google.com/maps/@33.7218881 ... 312!8i6656

I have seen this crossing before, just can't remember where... anyways, here it is caught active. It's in Garfield, New Jersey: https://www.google.com/maps/@40.8700853 ... 56!6m1!1e1. This crossing has an odd setup.

It's on the site:

Also, I believe Freedomtowerman might've also gotten a video of it in the past.

Came across this active crossing in Belvidere, IL... just east of Rockford: https://www.google.com/maps/@42.2514114 ... 6656?hl=en

I'd like to know why or how that signal was installed the way it was. I can think of any reason as to why it would be like that.

Not exempt by any stretch (Atlantic City-Brigantine Connector, Atlantic City, NJ):

https://www.google.com/maps/@40.2609724 ... 312!8i6656

That crossing is in an area that I would not expect for one to be there.

I wonder what this blackout signal is for. I would like to think that it has something to do with the crossing but I can't image what. Maybe it is just extra warning. https://www.google.com/maps/@39.3641357 ... 312!8i6656

Looks like there are some crossing gates being stored right next to the crossing. https://www.google.com/maps/@39.3641357 ... 312!8i6656

There is also this unique freeway sign with an advanced warning sign and says "TRAIN WHEN FLASHING" along with two signal beacons. I had to use the view from 2008 because the view from 2015 was too blurry. https://www.google.com/maps/@39.3632969 ... 328!8i1664

They've got quite the setup there. https://www.google.com/maps/@40.5266624 ... 312!8i6656 https://www.google.com/maps/@40.5266475 ... 312!8i6656 https://www.google.com/maps/@40.5266475 ... 312!8i6656 https://www.google.com/maps/@40.5266475 ... 312!8i6656 https://www.google.com/maps/@40.5265077 ... 328!8i1664 https://www.google.com/maps/@40.5265077 ... 312!8i6656 https://www.google.com/maps/@40.5265077 ... 328!8i1664 https://www.google.com/maps/@40.5264638 ... 312!8i6656

Probably cost extra for this cantilever with the bump out that's only being used for a crossbuck.

Probably for quick replacement when someone breaks one of the 4 of them at that crossing. Smart idea if so...
