Quite a few interesting things in this area if you click around.

Back in July of 2012, the Google Street View car finds its way blocked by a CP local working this spur in Bangor, WI. It shoves clear, and the car gets some good shots of Soo Line GP38-2 4449 along with CP 4508.

There's also a caboose display nearby. Finally, the crossbucks have flashing red lights on top of them. It's doubtful they're automatic like normal signals, they probably just flash all the time as a reminder to watch for trains.

Unfortunately according to someone who is a part of a Facebook group that I'm apart of, the signals were replaced with standard ones.

I wonder if there's been any changes to these classics?

Interesting how the side lights on this signal weren't replaced while the other lights at the crossing were. I guess they were just a lower priority.

The crossing also has a pedestrian gate which is uncommon in Ohio. It also doesn't have a gate light.
