A really old one with a wooden "GATES" sign at Glenferrie Road, Kooyong. :TUP1:

Slightly off-topic but did you notice this repurposed 75km/h speed limit sign nearby?

That's neat. I didn't notice it last time I was there though so it might have been removed.

Some rather faded ones at Bakers Road, Coburg North. (Both missing the 'Crossing Ahead' sign)

https://www.google.com.au/maps/@-37.727 ... 312!8i6656

The second one has since been removed. (The crossing is also active)

I also found this. :LOL3:

Sadly, it's been corrected now. :OhWell:

It would be appropriate if that was for a crossing that had a signal for the same direction of travel with the lights on top. :Laugh:

This one at Beni Street, Wongarbon is an interesting one...
https://www.google.com.au/maps/@-32.334 ... 312!8i6656

Back in 2010, there wasn't a 'Rail Crossing' sign below the triangle!

I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned Henty.

I'm not sure if this has already been posted.

There was another one on the other side, but the sign was bent and buckled.

They're gone now (As of 2015)

One for a 'Rail Crossing' sign located at a disused crossing in Naracoorte, SA. Note the weird mounting...
https://www.google.com.au/maps/@-36.955 ... 312!8i6656

Some at an out of service passive crossing in Griffith, NSW. It runs through a roundabout!

Sadly the crossing at Griffith and all of the signs have since been removed, not sure if the track was removed or just paved over but it's now difficult to see that the crossing ever existed.

Here's a strange one at Port Kembla NSW. This is the original advance warning sign with a hazard triangle in 2007, it is mounted on a power pole.
https://www.google.com.au/maps/@-34.476 ... 328!8i1664

The signage has since been upgraded and the hazard triangle was left in place, but turned upside down.
