Those signals with crossbucks before the switch to red and white crossbucks are very rare. I'm surprised that there are some still in service.NSrailfan4life wrote:A Canadian crossing on the CP as seen in the all time classic Silver Streak.

Re: signals in the media
There's a signalized railroad crossing somewhere in Georgia at 10:06 in this video:
There are also some signals at 12:44, though they are a bit hard to see. There are also a few more at 16:57.

Re: signals in the media
In the 2014 Godzilla movie, there's a scene with a gateless 8 inch signal with a backwards crossbuck in it. The signal also isn't on, despite the train going through it.
I'm posting a screenshot from the CinemaSins video on the movie, since I don't know if I can find this actual scene on YouTube, nor do I have the actual movie (and I found out about it since I was watching this video):

Re: signals in the media
I know in the 1992 film "My Cousin Vinny" were outside one of the hotels they stay in is located next to railroad crossing. Every morning, Joe Pesci's character gets woken up by the train going through the crossing.
Metro, why do you keep removing Mechanical bells?!
