Mike's Railroad Crossing Forum

*originally recorded on 9-16-23*

Signal on the left: 4 pairs of WCH 12x24 inch lights, a WCH Type 1.5 electronic bell, a WCH gate mechanism, and WCH gate lights.
Signal on the right: 4 pairs of WCH 12x24 inch lights, a dead WCH electronic bell, a WCH gate mechanism, and WCH gate lights.

This was the eighth crossing I caught the Summerville Steam Special at, and it was also the last one I filmed them at before the train arrived to the depot in Summerville. The signals here appear to have been a 2000s CCKY install, and are still pretty much entirely original. A few of the lights here have gotten LEDs in them over the years, but at least a few still retain incandescent bulbs.
Both gate arms are also still the older diagonally-striped ones and retain a full set of incandescent gate lights on both, which are nice to see. Sadly, one of the ones on my side was dead, so hopefully the CCKY gets a new bulb put in it soon. The WCH e-bell on this signal has also gone dead, sadly, though I guess we'll just have to wait and see if they choose to replace it at all.

Got another video here on 9-30-23:


Also, it turns-out that the gate lights here are actually WCH, so I've gone ahead and updated my descriptions. The closer signal's WCH e-bell was also working this time around, and is a WCH Type 1.5.
