Odd setup.

Interesting!
Theere use to be a very faded crossbuck there and a stop sign.
There also use to be nothing at all!

Interesting how those side lights are separately mounted, too!

Yeah... it looks like one of these brackets that I found in Kokomo, IN a few months back.

Reminds me of the brackets I've seen pictures of on a crossing in Toledo, OH. Those who are on Facebook in the Railway Crossings group may have seen them. The person who posted them is actually a member of this forum so I'll let them chime in and post them if they want to.
They/Them for me, please.
