Nice finds!
8 inch Eagle Flat-back signal sections too, interesting.

This is the first time that I've seen a no turn on left/right signal setup like this. https://www.google.com/maps/@39.2654931 ... 6656?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@39.2654348 ... 6656?hl=en
------------------------------------
Classic cantilever signal being dismantled. :Awww: https://www.google.com/maps/@39.2645799 ... 6656?hl=en

Odd setup. https://www.google.com/maps/@39.5416253 ... 6656?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@39.5417228 ... 6656?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@39.5417228 ... 6656?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@39.5420549 ... 1664?hl=en

Another odd setup. https://www.google.com/maps/@38.737811, ... 6656?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@38.737839, ... 6656?hl=en

Here is an active view in 2008. https://www.google.com/maps/@38.7376428 ... 1664?hl=en
And here is an active view in 2013.https://www.google.com/maps/@38.7376419 ... 6656?hl=en
------------------------------------
Here is another way that I have never seen a no turn on left/right signal setup like this. https://www.google.com/maps/@38.7378806 ... 6656?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@38.7378749 ... 6656?hl=en

This is the first time I've seen side lights setup horizontally. https://www.google.com/maps/@38.7380211 ... 6656?hl=en

B&O color position signal. https://www.google.com/maps/@38.7383022 ... 6656?hl=en
------------------------------------
This signal on has one front and rear light! :Confused: https://www.google.com/maps/@38.8639452 ... 1664?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@38.8638687 ... 1664?hl=en

This signal also only has one side light! https://www.google.com/maps/@38.8639452 ... 1664?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@38.8638687 ... 1664?hl=en

Uh not at all. :Blink:

https://www.google.com/maps/@39.264548, ... 6656?hl=en

Looks like standard maintenance to me in that shot.

Although, yes it is gone as of 2015: https://www.google.com/maps/@39.2638799 ... 6656?hl=en

The signal in the very first link used to be a classic as well: https://www.google.com/maps/@39.2655341 ... 1664?hl=en

Here is this crossing active from the other side: https://www.google.com/maps/@38.7375562 ... 6656?hl=en
Also notice the cat eye crossbuck? :TUP2:
Hard to tell with the grainy pics, but my guess is that it got clipped by a truck coming out of the gas station, or it was vandalized.

That crossing was caught in action back in 2007 as well, when it had both of the old cantilevers!

That's probably an N&W CPL, as that's an NS line there!

This line is active, but these signals are in poor shape:
https://www.google.com/maps/@41.6270698 ... 312!8i6656

One signal here has a gate while the other doesn't:
