That cantilever is a bit odd.
Re: Google Maps Scavenger Hunt
Not sure what's odd about the cantilever other than it being a 1980s Safetran cantilever.

Greece typically uses the same equipment and the United States and Canada. I posted here a while ago a crossing with a different kind of equipment in the outskirts of Athens.

It seems that they got some crossing equipment from AZD! (AZD is a company based in the Czech Republic)
