Have to wonder how that happened...
Looks like some nice older Conrail equipment there as well.
They/Them for me, please.

I know about the backwards "CROSSING RAILROAD" crossbuck, the word "CROSSING" and/or the word "RAILROAD" upside down, or even both upside down and backwards.
But how in the world did someone manage to put up "RAILRAIL CROSSING" without even noticing. :LOL3:


Even the crossbuck has been there for 10 years (https://www.google.com/maps/@42.7483292 ... 328!8i1664), and no one even noticed it within that time frame. :Blink:

Even older than 10 years, that crossbuck dates back to Conrail!

Sorry for the bump, but I found one in Maine on the old (defunct) lower road.

Well, there've been three confirmed locations* of "RailRail Crossings", so it's entirely possible. :Tongue2:

*One was at an unknown crossbuck crossing in rural Ohio a couple of decades ago, and is presumed to be replaced.
They/Them for me, please.
