Wonder if the lower arm on one of them got whacked by something and wasn't ever properly fixed?

Looks like someone or something broke the crossing gate at this crossing and I wonder if this is keeping the crossing activated.

Looks like someone hit it, although it was active for this train here:

There's also this gate right here that's not fully in the up position, so that it balances out with the broken gate on the other side:

This signal is placed sideways!

Malfunctioning crossing

These signals (And cars) are placed on the wrong side of the road!

That one could be the culprit. It appears to be hung up on the wind guard.

However both gates are normally more vertical when the crossing is property deactivated.

Probably an impatient driver whacked the one gate... cuz that never happens here.

Deactivating I believe. It's half a quad crossing, so the one gate is delayed it appears.

Believe it or not... I believe they do that on purpose. The quad gate is on a delay... so the ped gate will lower first (with the main gates), then the quad gate will lower. Yes... kind of silly. But I have seen this before.
