Here's an interesting crossing with a mixture of Safetran 8 inch lights, 12x20 inch GRS Lex-c lights, and 12x24 inch Safetran lights:

This signal is for pedestrians who want to cross the tracks:

One of these GRS Lex-C lights is missing it's background:

They/Them for me, please.

I have a feeling that this signal may have just originally served the road right there, because it looks like it used to cross the tracks right there.

I'm assuming that's what its original purpose was. I was just mentioning its current purpose.
