*originally recorded on 9-7-23*

Signal on the left: 2 pairs of Safetran 12x24 inch lights, a US&S Model 95 gate mechanism, and RECO LED gate lights.
Signal on the right: 2 pairs of Safetran 12x24 inch lights, a General Signals Type 3 electronic bell, a US&S Model 95 gate mechanism, and RECO LED gate lights.

After seeing the intermodal train, I went on over to this crossing in the nearby unincorporated community of Quincy. After about 2 hours of waiting, during which a ballast train I saw getting a crew in Amory departed, but sadly down the BNSF Amory Subdivision, I was able to get my fourth train of the day: a southbound loaded coal train with an SD70ACe leading an SD70MAC on the head-end and a pair of ES44ACs and another SD70ACe working as the trains DPUs.

This crossing's a fairly nice one, being an early-2000s BNSF install that's still largely original. It appears that sometime after 2015 or so, the original GS Type 2 e-bell here was replaced with the current GS Type 3, but no other major changes appear to have occurred to this crossing since it was installed.
