This is very poor signal placement. This could cause drivers to inadvertently stop on the tracks at night

It's placed like that because of the way the tracks cross the road. Nonetheless, it is kind of a flawed setup.

This crossing up in Mt. Vernon is worse.

I'd like to thing that the sign-less passive crossing is flagged.

That, or the tracks are not in service.
