An interesting way to say "Railraod crossing: 2 tracks."

A bit weird, although they do use 2 Tracks signs, unlike what California uses.

They have to be symbolic like that because the signs have to be read by people whom speak French; namely, the people of Quebec.
The red & white crossbuck is used because, otherwise, they'd have to crowd
"railway/crossing," and the French translation, "rail façon/croisement" onto the sign.

I don't know... it could be pulled off. I mean, look at this dinosaur. You could probably rent out advertising space along with advising of a crossing...
