Railroad crossings at Walt Disney World, Bay Lake, FL.

No, there are no videos of the crossings.

Yesterday, i headed out with my family to Bay Lake, Florida to Walt Disney World. I saw some crossings while riding the full route of the WDRR. I saw some interesting equipment.

The first crossing was some little footpath crossing with some interesting yellow and blue circular crossbucks that said "CAUTION RAILROAD CROSSING" I've never saw that before, I'm probably thinking they were just home made crossbucks by Disney themselves.

The second crossing, yes this gets interesting. Was a crossing for a pathway that leads to somewhere, i don't know if its closed off to the public or a restricted area. But this crossing had (May not be accurate) WRRS 12x20 inch lights fitted with WCH 1st generation LEDS, WCH gate mechanisms and a WCH mechanical bell, another bell must've had a WRRS mechanical bell.

The third crossing was a pedestrian crossing that was pedestrian gated. The bells must've been WCH mechanical bells, one gate mechanism had a WCH mechanism while another appeared to have a WABCO Model 95 mechanism.

Sadly, I couldn't take videos since I don't think Disney allows digital cameras past security. Correct me if any crossing equipment is listed incorrectly. I'm a little rusty right now.

Are all of the crossings that you saw for employees only? I didn't know that any of the crossings in the patk could be seen without riding the train, except for the one near the yard.

I can't imagine that Disneyworld doesn't allow cameras.

Not sure, never got around to having a look at the pathway. By the time i got out of Disney it had just turned 9P.M. The pedestrian gated crossing west side was blocked by a gate.

Here is a video of whole train ride from a few years ago. Looks like you caught the train at Fantasyland so you saw the small non-signalized crossing first. In the video, that crossing is toward the end as that video was started at the Main Street station.

In the video, the signalized crossings are at 1:45 and 2:40. The third crossing is at the 9:40 mark. None of these crossings are in public areas.

And yes, cameras are allowed at the park. I have an annual pass and have taken a camera through security several times.
