A crossing signal morphed into wires and gravel?

I was thinking the same. Not even a base left that the signal was attached to?

I have a question about this month's theme. Can signals that go up (like in a brand new installation) at a crossing count, as long as it isn't complete? Would that count? If so, I can contribute this month with a picture back from 1987.

Okay then... Here's mine...
From 1987 of the former CA Highway 47 on-ramp to the harbor. The on-ramp was closed for a few months for a signal upgrade from gateless 12"x20" mast signals to 12"x20" cantilevers with gates.
SP crews were working on the upgrade in progress and here's the one picture I took of the upgrade:

Out with the old, in with the new. Old signal being dismantled, while the new is giving warning of it's first train.
