Check out the rusty cantilever in the background:

With that pinnacle I thought it was an old tornado siren at first!

It used to, but not anymore. The signals were taken out shortly after Alex left Maine.

I have no idea. It was working when I got the pictures. That crossing is on the Maine Eastern Railroad, which only runs during the summer, and the Christmas Holiday. 3 other crossings next to this one had the same setup, but got upgraded to new signals with 12X24 Safetran dotted LED's and GS E bells and gates. The crossing is blocked off and I dont know if it's still there. This is the last piece of history this signal probably has. I will return to the crossing if I return to Maine sometime in the future.

That's why I love looking along California's spur lines. So many cool classics out there.
