Mike's Railroad Crossing Forum

*originally recorded on 9-20-19*

Signal on the left: 2 pairs of WCH 12x20 inch lights, a General Signals Type 2 electronic bell, a US&S Model 95 gate mechanism, and RECO LED gate lights.
Signal on the right: 2 pairs of WCH 12x20 inch lights, a US&S Model 95 gate mechanism, and RECO LED gate lights.

This was the next crossing I caught the BNSF intermodal at. It features another pair old BN WCH signals from the 1980s, but like Spring Street in Adamsville, both the original bell and gate mechs were replaced at some point. However, unlike Spring Street, this crossing didn't have its original WCH gate mechs replaced until sometime after 2014, though it's probably why these signals are still around as well. Nothing too much to say about these signals otherwise, however.

No major changes to this crossing as of 1-6-21, with a recording from the side with the bell this time around:


In fact, the only change here appears to have been a fresh coat of paint on the lights of both signals.

Thankfully no changes here as of 4-23-24:
