Active Crossing in Cisco, GA:
https://www.google.com/maps/@34.9510014 ... 328!8i1664

Wonder if those signals are still there!

Not sure, kinda hard to tell from satellite imagery:
https://www.google.com/maps/@34.9510182 ... a=!3m1!1e3

Looks like at least one signal may have been replaced though.

From what I've seen: It does look like that the 8 inch lights are still there, though I can't really tell for sure.

Even if the 8" lights are gone it still looks like the gates remain on separate masts!

CSX truck and some sort of "CSX" school bus.

https://www.google.com/maps/@42.147124, ... 328!8i1664

Looks like it's used to haul around large track gangs.

Those gate masts are certainly interesting...

Don't forget the fact that the other cantilever was knocked down sometime around and then too!

Here's a rather cool crossing with some nice old signals:

https://www.google.com/maps/@42.1891053 ... 328!8i1664
Looks like it's gone now though, sadly:

What is a "Track gang"?

They are MOW crews (maintenance of way, they work on tracks)

Active crossing near McEwan, TN:

This is an odd cantilever set up here:
https://www.google.com/maps/@36.1095694 ... 312!8i6656

Pretty nice MI 8 inch install:

That is quite possibly the brightest incandescent signal I have ever seen.
