Recorded this bell only crossing over on the KCS Mexico Sub today. This particular one is located outside of Odessa, Missouri as you are going into town. One of 7 bell only crossings on the Mexico Sub. There is another crossing similar to this one over on Blue Book Rd, but that crossing has a GS Type 2 (the rest of those crossings have GS Type 2s) while Curtis Rd (the crossing I filmed at) has a GS Type 1. The lone signal was originally installed by the Chicago & Alton railroad.

May have been shared here before, but here's one in Davenport, IA on an out-of-service CP spur line, which also features a Milwaukee Road-era 45 degree crossbuck. I hope to get out here and shoot it before it's gone.
