Strange private crossing in Knoxville, TN.
https://www.google.com/maps/@35.9767691 ... 6656?hl=en

Both signals are on the wrong side of the road!

The surroundings make this crossing look nice.

L&N gated setup in Powell, TN. Sadly, the original bell and gate mechs have been replaced.

Both signals are on one side of the road, likely due to the lack of space.

Same here...

Signals being installed in Clinton, TN.

Dumb question, i'm not sure if this is true. Wasn't this crossing in a movie?

#1. You mean standard not "tradition".

However, this one WAS used in a movie. IIRC it was the first Transformers Movies that came out in mid 2000's

Saying that stop signs at intersections where crossings are located is an FRA violation should be an FRA violation.
