*originally recorded on 4-12-23*

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

After catching NS A95, I went over to this crossing for the next train NS would run. After a bit of waiting, I was able to get my second train on the NS Memphis District West End, which was NS 733 for a third time. No changes in the power in the few hours between this catch and my previous catch of it.

This crossing is another nice one, and is the only crossing in Corinth to feature an Invensys Rail gate mechanism, I believe. It appears that these signals were originally installed by NS back in the very late-90s or early-2000s, like the three others in downtown Corinth. However, in the early to mid-2010s, the closer signal was replaced entirely with the current one.
Since then, the only notable change here was the replacement of all of the gate lights on this crossing, sometime within the past four years or so. I'm not entirely sure if the NEG LED on the closer signal was a replacement for one of the replacement RECO gate lights here, or if the crossing was upgraded with all NEG LEDs and the rest were replaced already. Either way, said LED is already dead, so I suspect it'll be getting replaced eventually as well.
