Can you tell me WTF that cantilever is?

I don't know why but public railroad crossings especially signalized ones on narrow gauge lines always interest me!

I wonder why there is a relay cabinet here?

Someone put a homemade sign on the crossbuck post.

Also, notice how small the exempt sign is!

Holy cow, amazing find! I always thought that the only public narrow-gauge crossing in the country was this one in Imperial, CA!

That crossing could have been signalized at one point many years ago.

There are a handful of other narrow gauge lines here in the US with public crossings but I think I showed you all of the signalized ones that I know of and possibly all of the signalized ones in the country.

Richmond, CA really has some nice crossings.
