*originally recorded on 9-15-17*

Signal on the left: 2 pairs of US&S 12x24 inch lights with RSI LEDs, a WCH mechanical bell, a US&S Model 95 gate mechanism, and NEG LED gate lights.
Signal on the right: 2 pairs of US&S 12x24 inch lights with RSI LEDs, a WCH mechanical bell, a US&S Model 95 gate mechanism, an L&W LED gate light, and NEG LED gate lights.

This crossing is a rather cool one. It's right off of NJ 17 (and can be easy to miss when heading north), and is on a small stub street that serves a few businesses. It also connects to 12th Street on the other side of the crossing, though said street is pretty much a poorly-maintained almost-gravel drive that serves two businesses, one of which appears to have long since closed. The crossing itself features two almost-all US&S signals from when the NJT very briefly used US&S equipment (likely in the mid-2000s), and are still almost entirely original! The RSI LED on the right of the right-hand signal appears to have had the original lens replaced with a lens like what'd be used on an incandescent light for some reason. I ain't complaining though as it just makes the crossing more unique. This was also my first time seeing US&S Model 95s in action as well! Also, IMHO, these gate mechanisms also resemble a thinner GRS Type B, to me.
