I'm new to this hobby, so my knowledge on the history of crossings is very limited. This looks pretty old, not sure what brand the crossing signals are, but the support poles attached to them looks pretty ancient. These were removed in 2011.

Those were definitely some classic signals, almost certainly dating back to whatever railroad owned it originally. One of the signals seems to have been an old US&S cantilever (though cantilevers of that style were sold by many different companies at the time, including GRS, WRRS, Griswold, and Transport Products Corp, just to name a few). The other cantilever there was a WRRS (or maybe FS or WCH) cantilever. The lights were all 8 inch lights, with a mix of GRS Lex-C 8 inch lights (most likely from Conrail) and what I'm guessing were Safetran 8 inch lights (most likely from SEPTA). Certainly was a nice install, shame SEPTA replaced it years ago.
