Re: Favorite Crossing You've Been To?
These are some of the best crossings I've been to (and these are some of the crossing that is set to release in FBP's next update)
Sherwood Forest Dr. Baton Rouge, LA
This crossing is one of my favorites because it has a Safetran Hybrid mechanical bell, with a classic Cantilever setup on one of the signals, and the other one just as a Mast setup, and being right next to an intersection.

Wooddale Blvd. Baton Rouge, LA
The reason I like this crossing is because of the Safetran Type 1 electric bell.

Lobdell Blvd. Baton Rouge, LA
This is one of those unusual looking crossings, how the lights on the mast is branched out because of the at-grate crossing angle between the road and the tracks combining the intersection next to the crossing.

Ascension St, Gonzales, LA
This crossing is a pretty old-looking crossing, but the thing I like most about this particular crossing is the bells for this crossing

Cherry St. Hammond, LA
I really like this crossing because of the cantilever setup with two pairs of 20" lights, and a pair of 8" lights, and what makes this interesting is that this is a simple 2-lane road.

Re: Favorite Crossing You've Been To?
Since my last post, I have 2 additional crossings that are considered my favorites as well.
Metairie Rd, Metairie, LA
The reason I like this particular crossing is because of it being a 4-quadrant crossing, and how it was activated when a train passes by.

Dauphine St & Poland Ave, New Orleans, LA
I have mentioned a couple of times about this crossing, it's just the complete oddity of this crossing is why I love this crossing.
