Here is the crossing on streetview, interesting how in one way these signals are very similar to American and Canadian signals while in another way they are kind of different.

The ones in Italy were branded and distributed by WABCO. It appears the ones in Greece are the same way, as this one has a WABCO label on it!

It's actually been posted at least once or twice before, but it's still always great to see.

This looks like one in Uruguay, although the track seems to be out of service.
