For crossings suggesting that they are dangerous, the track conditions can really show how often they may be used.
The signs are old cast iron ones, so the line may have originally been a very busy main line. Or there used to be some other condition at the crossings years ago that made them dangerous, and the signs were never removed.
Kind of like a relic of what the line was at the crossing a long time ago! Pretty cool if you ask me!

Well that's interesting then, because you'd think that when the crossbucks got changed out, they'd take down the old signs as well. Either way, I would at least hope those signs promote awareness to be careful when crossing those tracks.

Definitely not an "Oops". It's nice to see more current images to see if the crossing has been changed or is still active. I've recently started going through some of the "older" posts (dating back to 2009) to see how things have changed. It's fun!
Either that or I just forgot about them.
