For the record, that crossing in Vallejo has been posted here several times in the past.

Was going down to the Tillamook Air Museum when we stumbled upon this setup. I believe this is for the road setup at this crossing.

There is a wigwag here fitted with a General Signals Type 2 Electronic Bell! (It replaced a US&S Teardrop unfortunately :Awww:)

Well, that's different. I almost didn't see that surprise hiding below the left fingernail.
Well, :Censored:

Another oddity to me is this crossing owned by the WSOR in Madison, Wisconsin. Only one of the signal approaches at this gated crossing has flashing lights on the mast. The rest only have gates and rely on the traffic signals.
Well, :Censored:
