Looking west. This crossing is kind of unusual, it is sandwiched between two signalized street intersections.
One of the westbound signals, showing 12"x24" RSI/Progress LED lights, Safetran gate mechanism, and GS electronic bell.

Looking east. The only "3 Tracks" sign is on the median signal, and it's mounted below the lights.

Track view looking north.
Track views looking south. In photo #11, notice the stop signs on the sides of the tracks. This is so train crews can stop and give the federally-mandated 20 second warning time at the crossing. The freight cars are parked just outside the crossing signal activation zone. Also in the right backgound of photo #11, you can see the Inwood Road (Farmer's Branch) crossing.
The equipment bungalow.
