More changes for UP crossings in Kirkwood, MO

Post by CIC755 »

* Geyer Road, Kirkwood Road, and Taylor Avenue have received center medians at their respective crossings.

* Kirkwood Road, Taylor Avene, and Leffingwell #1 (the main crossing) have had the lights upgraded to LED's (I think Harmon LED's, but I'm not entirely sure). The gate lights have been upgrade to Aurora LED's.

* The lights on the NB signal at Leffingwell #1 have changed to 12x24.

As of Saturday, 10-23-2010, or possibly sooner, UP has replaced the Safetran M-bell at the Taylor Avenue crossing with a type -2 WCH e-bell (though the bell had just been clicking for many months).
