Signal on the left: 3 pairs of WCH 8 inch lights, a WCH mechanical bell, a WCH gate mechanism, and NEG LED gate lights.
Signal on the right: 4 pairs of WCH 8 inch lights, a WCH mechanical bell, a WCH gate mechanism, RECO LED gate lights, and an NEG LED gate light.

After catching I038, I went up to this crossing to wait for the next train I'd catch. This train turned-out to be Amtrak 90 with the typical P42DC for power, and a friendly crew aboard. You can also hear the defect detector between Lake City and Scranton going off for Amtrak 90 as the crossing activates, along with the crew confirming over the radio that they didn't have any defects.

This crossing is a rather nice one, featuring a late-70s WCH install from the SCL that's still entirely original! Both WCH mechanical bells here still sound rather healthy, which is great to see. Hopefully these classic SCL signals remain unchanged for many more years to come.
