I'm not sure if the stop sign here would be an FRA violation because it is on a signal even though it is right in front of an intersection. Regardless it is pretty interesting and odd.
Yeah, that was the only thing I could think of for the extra lights. A lot of the crossing signals on that line seemed to have extra pairs of lights for nearby driveways and other pathways people could drive on.
I've seen those before. I don't quite know what the amber one does, but the red one is used for signal activation indication. The white one indicates power to the crossing.

Maybe the amber one lights up when the gates lower and the red one lights up after the gates have finished lowering.
The MBTA is a big fan of WCH e-bells. There are also a few shortlines and regionals here on the east coast (like the NYSW and the CCKY, for example) that are big fans of them as well. The TSRR seems to have adopted them as well.
