Here is the original crossing, this one is equipped with mechanisms of unknown make or origin.

Sometime between 2011 and 2014 it was replaced with this new setup.

This is a very interesting situation, i didn't know that WABCO still made AL-70s into this decade. Does anybody know if they are still in production?

I'm thinking that they were re-used. WABCO split up after breaking away from US&S years ago, with the rail-related portion becoming Wabtec, though Wabtec doesn't make crossing equipment, according to their site.

Interesting, has anybody located WABCO's last crossing install? Just curious.

Looks like the cantilevers never had lights on them either.
