Non-Standard Crossbuck Font

That seems to have been a custom job done by a local road department. The two pieces of the crossbuck are made out of extruded street blades (just one of the ones near me as an example), and the font appears to be the same Highway Gothic variant as what's typically used on street blades as well.

That C&NW cantilever's definitely nice to see though.

These crossbucks CP(KC) has in Davenport look somewhat similar. Perhaps custom jobbers too? (Sadly, they're probably all gone by now unless totally forgotten...)

Possibly, unless this was something a regional supplier did.

Never seen a crossbuck like that around here in my state. Looks pretty weird how the word "CROSSING" is right in the middle and has blank spaces between it.

Found at the end of a UP industrial spur that is basically a dead crossing... short of switching or runaround moves. Fairly new, replaced sometime between now and September 2021.

This to me actually looks worse that the glorified "Arial Black" font crossbucks.
Seriously, are companies just slapping the first craptastic font they have as default in MS Paint these days?

This is a new one on me. Found it on a subreddit looking for info on when the MUTCD removed 45-degree crossbucks from standards.
This appears to be a line run by the Bay Colony RR, and instead of just putting up a new crossbuck, someone took the time to cover the old blades with new text on reflective sheeting to retain the original crossbuck.
Old Reed Rd., Dartmouth, MA
It looks derpy that the lettering isn't properly kerned for the larger blades, but cool at the same time that the original 45-degree sign was retained and I guess technically modernized for safety and visibility.
