Mike's Railroad Crossing Forum

Napa Valley Wine Train. In a residential area. This would be neat to see active!

and down the line a bit is a parking lot with a dedicated mast & gate:

That 2nd link is definitely an odd setup. The track to the right is not protected by that parking lot gate as the track runs in front of it. Appears that track doesn't get used anymore because someone put a chain across that track (to the right of the parking lot signal). Still kind of odd that they would set it up like that.

6 bells in that first link. I haven't seen that since I went to Florida 4 years ago...

Nice and loud for a residential area. To quote Mike: "I hope those bells quit when the gates lower."

I didn't say that. I said: "I bet those bells silence when the gates fully lower."
