Mike's Railroad Crossing Forum

Either the sun bleached this Deadpool 2 poster, or Arriva (My local transportation company) mistakenly printed the advertisement in black and white.

Plus, for it being July 2018, that poster is way outdated. (May 15 it was released in England)

I still wonder why the council never bothered correcting this.

Is this arrow telling me to drive into the wall of the church? (Signals have since been upgraded, though i wonder why it magically misaligned itself)

Damaged pedestrian signal, and this still hasn't been fixed as of 2019.

Not a railroad crossing, but equipment crossings

A pelican crossing which has had it's old relay cabinet surprisingly reused.

The only strange part however, was that the pedestrian signals are incandescent, but i do wonder why, it is rather unusual.

Microsense control box, i don't consider this as the original control box though, i assume the older one was hit and a replacement had to be sourced.

On the topic of control boxes, i've seen two of these near the care home for my grandmother, i wonder what these are as they are the same shape of the normal traffic light control box, i assume these are for street lighting?

I can't confirm if the cabinet is still operational, quite a few of these streetlights on this stretch of road were replaced between late 2015 and May 2017.

I also wonder what this could've been? It has now been demolished and replaced by housing, though my guesses it could've been a child day care center.

Another cabinet, though this was later replaced when the pavement was widened as part of a road upgrading project in 2012.

What kind of equipment?

I do not know whether this was a street view bug, or just strange signage installation.

I presume farming equipment or something similar.

I say the latter:

Gee, i can tell how outdated i feel.

This literally makes zero sense to me, why have push buttons further away when there are some closer to you?
https://www.google.com/maps/@52.9558923 ... 312!8i6656

I think i'm being scammed here.

Probably the fact that this sign was on an abandoned building:
https://www.google.com/maps/@52.95632,- ... 312!8i6656

I don't get this signal at all.
https://www.google.com/maps/@52.9714571 ... 312!8i6656

It wasn't even like that beforehand.
