Don't see how it would be possible to aim those lights any differently on that left sided mast signal. The shrubbery needs to be cut back in my opinion. You can see the other signal across the tracks though.
This would be a good location for another "span" signal since there is really no other place to put any other signals or regular cantilevers. Or, you could get permission from the owner of that garage to mount some lights on the building.

I would aim the lamps a little more right. They appear aimed straight ahead.
If I owned the garage, I would give them permission to mount 8-inch lamps.
Are 8-inch lamps still made/sold for situations like this where 12-inch are not needed?

The light heads on the site above are all L&W except in picture three. Those are WABCO. The L&W's are described as US&S but they indeed L&W. L&W light heads look similiar to Transport Products light heads. They have unique visors. They have a flat lense retaining ring like TP's but they are stamped L&W. The pic below is of a L&W head. The stamp is on the bottom of the lense retaining ring but it is hard to see in this pic.
That picture looks close to a US&S light head

I speak my mind, if you don't like that oh well. I'll have you fill out a hurt feelings report and submit that to my office.

Looks like I'm about 7 years late to add my two-cents, but here is an old photo from the Atlantic Coast Line. The Crossing has a very similar setup to the ones mentioned above. The photo was taken in 1951.
