Recorded on 6-24-20. Finally caught this crossing in action. After catching NS 8025 on the NS KC District, Myles and I decided to catch a UP River Sub as one popped up on his ATCS monitor. This train sure threw us off. We thought it was going to stay on the BNSF Marceline Sub so we went up to Atherton to catch it ONLY to find out it was going onto the River Sub. Without any hesitation, we raced back to the River Sub with plenty of time to spare. This crossing sure has a nice bell combo with the gs type 3 (which replaced the previous mechanical bell), and a second gen wch mechanical bell. Glad to finally got a video of these older MoPac signals in action!
