Mike's Railroad Crossing Forum

*originally recorded on 5-12-20*

Signal on the left: 2 pairs of Safetran 12x20 inch lights, a General Signals Type 2 electronic bell, a Safetran gate mechanism, and NEG gate lights.
Signal on the right: 2 pairs of Safetran 12x20 inch lights, a General Signals Type 2 electronic bell, a Safetran gate mechanism, and RECO gate lights.

After catching the mixed freight at Dudley Road, I continued on documenting crossings. While finishing up this crossing, I saw a train approaching, so I quickly got set-up for it. I had known this train was coming, as the signal at CP Benz to the west of here upgraded from stop to approach while I was documenting the crossing over there, but I didn't realize it was coming almost right behind the previous one. Either way, this wound-up being my second train of the day: a northbound intermodal train with a UP SD70ACe leading a UP AC44CW an a UP AC45CCTE working as the end-train DPU.

This crossing is a pretty alright one, being a mid-2000s NS install with no major changes done to it. Nothing really too much to say about it though. However, the bell on the closer signal is leaning at an angle for some reason, though it sounds like it still works.
Not entirely sure why the road is named that either.
