The BNSF Cuba Sub from Springfield, Mo - St. Louis, Mo is well known for its vintage incandescent crossings and old equipment being that it is Ex: Frisco, & BN. I was told by a reliable source that MoDot is pushing for the line to get LED upgrades for the whole line and an additional GS type 3 for bell-less signals. This is a big loss as there are not very many incandescent crossings left in Missouri other than NS. This will indeed by a big loss.

Yeah, I heard this as well from a local guy.
