This is certainly a very odd crossing so I thought it was worth filming. It is located about halfway along the private Wongawilli branch line, south of Wollongong NSW, Australia. The crossing only provides access to a private property, so I guess they considered it was not worthy of a full-scale installation. There is only one signal, fitted with 2 red beacon lights. It has back-to-back crossbucks which were installed incorrectly, they read "Crossing Railway". The relay case is mounted on the mast and has a SORS sign on the front, as well as another one on the rear side. There is a blue strobe light on top of the mast, possibly used to indicate an equipment failure.
