I've never seen a signalized crossing like this before. These signals are not mentioned in the crossings inventory. The crossings dot number is 102494E. https://www.google.com/maps/@48.8273255 ... 1664?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@48.8273264 ... 1664?hl=en

There is even a signal for the side street! https://www.google.com/maps/@48.8274416 ... 1664?hl=en
-----------------------------------------------------
This is a cool crossing, its on a public road which is odd. https://www.google.com/maps/@48.3463122 ... 1664?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@48.3465925 ... 1664?hl=en
-----------------------------------------------------
Active Crossing. https://www.google.com/maps/@39.0232341 ... 1664?hl=en

The train. https://www.google.com/maps/@39.0232341 ... 1664?hl=en
-----------------------------------------------------
Some nice cantilevers. https://www.google.com/maps/@39.3869192 ... 1664?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@39.3869124 ... 1664?hl=en
-----------------------------------------------------
A TrackMobile! https://www.google.com/maps/@39.2781219 ... 1664?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@39.2781233 ... 1664?hl=en
-----------------------------------------------------
This crossing has a pair of white L.E.D lights on the cantilever. They are probably used to let the crew that the crossing is active and is on the cantilever arm due to the angle of the crossing. https://www.google.com/maps/@43.235801, ... 6656?hl=en

That link appears to be wrong, takes you to Google Maps, but just to like that standard opening page...

One signal wonder. https://www.google.com/maps/@42.6672225 ... 6656?hl=en
The signal is a very nice old 8'' signal with a two-piece crossbuck! https://www.google.com/maps/@42.667222, ... 6656?hl=en
--------------------
Check out these old cantilevers! Unfortunately they are no longer there. https://www.google.com/maps/@42.7537904 ... 1664?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@42.7535661 ... 1664?hl=en
--------------------
Funny looking grades. https://www.google.com/maps/@42.8163414 ... 6656?hl=en https://www.google.com/maps/@42.8163414 ... 6656?hl=en

You might want to fix your link, it's incomplete.
They/Them for me, please.
