Main Street (GA 23/GA 57), Collins, GA
*originally recorded on 7-1-20*
Signal on the left: 2 pairs of WCH 12x20 inch lights with GE Uniform Look LEDs, a WCH mechanical bell, a WCH gate mechanism, and WCH LED gate lights.
Signal on the right: 3 pairs of WCH 12x20 inch lights with GE Uniform Look LEDs, a WCH mechanical bell, a WCH gate mechanism, and RECO LED gate lights.
After catching L782 just outside of Collins, Ethan and I were just able to beat them to the only signalized crossing in Collins itself. Like the previous one, this is another nice crossing featuring a pair of modern GC signals, though these were installed sometime between 2011 and 2013, which would've been pretty early on into the GC's ownership.
Sadly, these signals replaced a pair of old gateless SCL signals, which appear to have used WRRS, Federal Signal, and/or WCH equipment on them. In fact, the signals had a pair of mechanical bells, which would've been cool to see (IMHO). However, from what I can hear in a video from Blane, one, if not both, or the bells were probably dying back in 2011, so I have no doubt they'd've both long since been replaced had the gateless signals stuck-around here.
Here's the video I'm referring to:
They/Them for me, please.
