A bit of an old post, but the signals have since been completed, and the crossing now features a pair of
extremely tall gateless median signals:

What the?!
Of coarse that is in Canada and not in the states!

Kinda reminds me of this signal in the background in Edmonton which is also in Alberta.

First one I have seen that appears to be left on a non tourist line.
Having seen no other examples like this, would it be OK to say that this is probably the last one of it's kind on a non tourist crossing?

Yep, looks like NS replaced the signal.

That is the crossing that is on the site!
Interesting how that crossing has 8" (LED!) signals on the left side of the road. I wonder if they're for the sidewalks. They even have the speakers that are used on crosswalks!

Another NS signal with a US&S Model 95 outside of the Carolinas, also with an interesting mount for some rather old 8 inch side lights! (Was this posted before? I forget...)

A "pure" 1990s Conrail install!

Another 90s Conrail install, though a gateless and belless one:

Interesting how the lines over there still have some of the old overhead wire cantilever things still in place
