*originally recorded on 2-13-23*

Signal on the left: 2 pairs of WCH 12x24 inch lights with Leotek EV Series LEDs, an NEG electronic bell, a Siemens gate mechanism, NEG LED gate lights, and a RECO LED gate light.
Signal on the right: 2 pairs of WCH 12x24 inch lights with Leotek EV Series LEDs, an NEG electronic bell, a Siemens gate mechanism, and NEG LED gate lights.

After I shot M647 at Morris Majestic Road, I continued on up to the other crossing near Morris, as I still had yet to record it. After a little while of waiting here (close to two hours, it appears), this about 2.5-mile long northbound I126 finally came through with a CM44AC leading an SD70MAC on the head-end and an ES44AH working as the mid-train DPU.

This crossing is another decent one, being another mid-2010s CSX install that's still largely original. In fact, like with the other two I'd recorded this day, this one's only major change was also the replacement of one gate light on one of the signals here. Otherwise, nothing really too much that's noteworthy about these signals, though, is it just me, or does it sound like the bell on the far signal starts-up a bit late?
Also, as you can see, a local idiot decided to drive around a waiting car (not in my camera's frame) and the lowered gate arms because they wanted to save themselves a few minutes.
