*originally recorded on 1-4-24*

Signal on the left: 2 pairs of Safetran 12x20 inch lights, 1 pair of Safetran 12x24 inch lights, a General Signals Type 2 electronic bell, an Invensys Rail gate mechanism, and RECO gate lights.
Signal on the right: 2 pairs of Safetran 12x20 inch lights, 1 pair of Safetran 12x24 inch lights, an Invensys Rail gate mechanism, and RECO LED gate lights.

After I caught I026 in Thach, I continued on my way to the Shoals. However, as I was approaching Wheeler, I saw an eastbound approaching on the NS Memphis District East End, so I quickly turned around and raced back over to this crossing. After a few short minutes, I was able to get my second train of the day: NS 204 with a UP SD70ACe leading an NS ES44DC for power.

Since I was last here, NS replaced the gate lights on the closer signal with a set of RECO LEDs. Otherwise, this crossing has remained entirely unchanged since I last filmed it a few years ago, and this time around I was able to film it on the north side thanks to the lighting.
