S. 1st Street - Madison, WI

I finally shot a few crossings in Madison yesterday that I'd been meaning to get for awhile. This is one of very few (may be the only) 4-quad gate setups in Wisconsin. It was installed in late 2006, replacing gateless 8" signals with mechanical bells.
The lights are 12" x 24" Harmon fading L.E.D., the bells are GS Type 2, and the gate mechanisms are WCH. The exit gates have a slight delay in lowering compared to the entrance (standard) gates. The other crossing in the background has the same signals in a standard 2-gate setup which were installed at the same time.
