Found another active crossing from the recent GSV update...

And one block over for a different train:

Same track, but down a ways. Don't see the train, but the gates are down, and the "NO RIGHT TURN" sign is activated on the traffic signal.

Is the one signal even needed?

If you follow up a bit, the end of the train is seen here: http://goo.gl/maps/7kDwm

There's a setup similar to that in my area in Valrico, FL

I think on your example it is more for sight reasons. The signal with the gate could be somewhat blocked by the trees and power poles, so they decided to put a mast and set of lights on the other side. If that truly was the reason, not sure why they just didn't put in a cantilever instead.

I caught that OL NS train on a train about a year ago even though Washington has NO other trains other than CN, BNSF, EMDX, and Amtrak... so when I saw it i did a too bad it was too dark to take photos

Either the crossbuck is backwards or the Google car and the truck are going the wrong way.

I'll have to get those crossings for the site some time. It only gets 1 train aday.
The main line is in Chapel Hill.

Interesting that there are stop signs on both sides of that crossing. With one train a day and crossing signals, seems like a bit of a waste.
