This crossing is in a quiet zone. Trains cannot sound their horns at this crossing.

All of Smyrna, GA is a quiet zone. However, for some reason, this crossing has managed to remain with only two signals and no non-traversable medians at it. Not sure why, since it's a violation of the FRA's rules for modern quiet zones (since that's what this one appears to be), but it's interesting, nonetheless. Also, the original bell here would've been a Safetran Type-3.
They/Them for me, please.
