Tramway crossings count, don't they?

I thought that was a road traffic intersection that just happened to also have a tram line crossing through it.

Worst pedestrian crossing ever?

The stop signs being on top of the crossbucks is also pretty odd.

All crossbucks are two-pieced, so not sure why you mentioned that trait.

Not Canadian crossbucks.

I thought they were, but had a gap in the red border to make it look like one piece. Example:

Yeah, I've always noticed the gap and came to conclusion that they are two-pieced. In fact, I wanna say that they are made in the same factory as US crossbucks, but obviously with a different design.

This crossing in the LA Metro Blue Line to Long Beach now has Safetran Type 3's! They also got Siemens mechanisms. When I went by, a Metro train passed by and it was my first time hearing a Safetran Type 3 E-Bell.
