Not a crossing, but look at this interesting scene.

How often do you come across a wch gate mechanism with counterweights off a Harmon gate mechanism? This crossing in the West Bottoms has one. And yes I did film that crossing when I caught The Katy as well as an eastbound manifest, and a light engine move.

Proud owner of 7 mechanical bells along with a pair of safetran 12x20 lights and a 8 inch light. Been a fan of trains since I was little. Main place I railfan on, The Sedalia Sub.

Found this odd setup in Nazareth, Pennsylvania. How often do you find both signals on the wrong side of the road? Not sure if this was posted at some point or not. Sorry for Double posting.

Active crossing in Easton, PA.
https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7507261 ... 6656?hl=en
Also active in 2009, but likely malfunctioning.

This crossing has since been replaced with new equipment, but the bridge up ahead was closed in the 1990's due to safety concerns due to a quarry that was nearby, which has since been abandoned and the bridge demolished.

I'm gonna search Youtube to see if I can come across any videos from this Crossing.Looks to be some older Safetran 12x20s! Sweet find! Wonder if they still work?
Interestingly it's on a spur to a Bombardier Facility, so maybe that has something to do with the Safetran lights being here.
