I had seen that before. I think the signals and/or line may be out of service, or at least owned by a shortline with very little money. Take note of the missing front mast lights on the cantilever as well:TrickyMario7654 wrote:This is really odd. How come one side of the crossing is gated, but the other isn't?

If you look closely at that mast pole, you can see evidence of where a gate motor was most likely mounted at one time.freebrickproductions wrote:I had seen that before.

If they were... I don't remember seeing them. Don't recall ever seeing gates like that in operation in the US, so I for one and thankful it was posted!ZachL wrote:Those were already posted though weren't they?

I wanted to post the crossings as a whole along with the wishbone gates here in the 'Google Maps Scavenger Hunt' thread and then post just the gates in the 'A-frame/Wishbone gate locations' thread but I ended up posting the crossings in the 'Google Maps Scavenger Hunt' thread much later because I forgot to do it when I posted just the gates in the 'A-frame/Wishbone gate locations' thread.ZachL wrote:viewtopic.php?f=17&t=807&start=100#p23781cabman701 wrote:If they were...

On the very last video, you can hear the mini-bell that has since been replaced.
Looks like it's been like that for a while too. Wonder why.ToledoRailfan wrote:This crossbuck is facing the wrong direction.

That is kind of a thing in Ireland.freebrickproductions wrote:
It appears this crossing is starting to activate. The wig-wag on the left likely activates before the rest:
