Check out these old Griswold signals near the crossing, notice how one of the crossbucks was not installed correctly.

This odd looking signal has every light variety there is. 8 inch, 12x20 inch, and 12x24 inch sure makes for an interesting signal.

I had seen a signal like that as well on Street View before, and the signal you linked to was just that. I dunno if the 8" lights are still there though, because I believe that's a main line, and CSX has been on a "rapid-light-upgrade" cycle since 2011 or 2012 in my general area.
