Kind of an interesting setup they have there.
First crossing is on the site. Second one I need to get back out to as it has Lex-C lights.

I posted that a while back. Also, that crossing will be going up on the site in the next update, though the 8 inch lights there have since been upgraded.
They/Them for me, please.

Kind of hard to see but it looks like they're using a crosswalk signal in place of a blackout signal! Nice find!

Here is a classic and interesting gem in Ste. Genevieve, Missouri! :WOOT: Someone posted a photo of it a couple days ago in a group that I'm apart of.

Very odd! It is a good idea though! Nice find!
Another nice find! Interesting how the crossbuck is on a utility pole instead of the signal! I've never seen that before!
