At both ends it would appear...

Plus, there was one on top of the traffic signals at each end as well:

The new set-up also still retains the double bell set-up:

Hmmm... and right next to each other practically. I wonder if they both ring at the same time, or maybe one, then the other (like once the gate starts lowering). Would be interesting to see how all that works.

This Give Way sign in Chelsea, VIC must of been hit by a vehicle, causing it to fall down.

Well... it (the sign) definitely gave way.

I made that post back in July of 2015. (viewtopic.php?f=13&t=203&p=19755&hilit= ... ing#p19755)

For some reason when I click the links, they take me to the crossing when it wasn't malfunctioning and I am unable to go forward in time when the crossing was malfunctioning. The images showed the crossing malfunctioning with Google driving through the crossing. I wonder if Google removed it so no one knows that they went through an active crossing, kind of odd though sense this crossing is very remote.

Kind of an interesting setup.

Here is a cool railroad bridge in a scenic area in Oklahoma.

Lots of railroad underpasses in Pennsylvania are like that.

An interesting intersection in Frankenmuth, Michigan.

There also this traffic signal controlled crosswalk.

Couldn't they have just used a diagonal crosswalk there?
