Recorded on 5-27-20. After catching the westbound local at Arlington Ave #1, me and Myles were checking the diamond over by where the UP Polo Sub/CP Trenton Sub and the NS KC District crosses at to see if a sitting local with an sd40-2 is gonna move or not. We then noticed a westbound coming on the Polo Sub. We ran over to Arlington Ave #2 (which was across the street from Arlington Ave #1) and we caught this westbound UP manifest. Crossing itself is kinda boring. Crossing features two safetran gate mechs, 1 gs type 2, either Reco or NEG 4 inch led gate lights which sadly replaced older 7 inch gate lights (Rip), and safetran 12x24 lights with I wanna say safetran fading leds which replaced the original incandescent lights this crossing had.
