*originally recorded on 10-30-18*

Signal on the left: 2 pairs of Federal Signal 12x20 inch lights with Electro-tech LEDs, a Federal Signal mechanical bell, a WCH gate mechanism, and Electro-tech LED gate lights.
Signal on the right: 1.5 pairs of Federal Signal 12x20 inch lights with Electro-tech LEDs, 1 Harmon 12x20 inch light with an Electro-tech LED, a Federal Signal mechanical bell, a WCH gate mechanism, and Electro-tech LED gate lights.

This was the next crossing I chased the train to. It's pretty much almost exactly the same as Ranger Road, except that it has WCH gate mechanisms instead, undoubtedly replacing the original FS ones.. The lone Harmon light here is also still on the rear pair of lights, but is located on the left now, meaning that it was likely installed to replace a Federal SIgnal light that was clipped by a car. This is also one of two two crossings along the UP Reno Industrial Lead to feature Electro-tech LED gate lights, which were installed sometime between 2016 and 2018 when the gate arms here were replaced. The reason why this is Virginia Street #2 is because there used to be a crossing on this road in downtown Reno on the UP Roseville Sub, but it has long since been closed and replaced with an overpass. There's a third crossing on this road just north of this crossing where the Industrial Lead ducks back across this road.
They/Them for me, please.
