What is the lamp facing towards the track?
Blinks white light indicating the crossing signal is working?
Idiot Googlearth drivers do not know to stay away from semis which block so much view?
Don't know how to clean the camera lens?

Yep exactly
Why do they do that when the red crossing signalamps
(o)"|"(o) have side ports which allow one to see the lights operating?
Ahead is an interesting track crossing
# in the street.
Have never seen that before.

Those small indicators are pretty easy to see at night, but not so much in the day in bright sunlight. Plus... not really the case with this crossing... but if the tracks come through the crossing at an angle, then the lights will not be parallel with the track.
