At this crossing, the tracks cross diagonally through the intersection of two streets. There are 4 identical crossing signals, one for each corner of the intersection (in photos #1 and #6 you can see the position of all 4 signals). Each signal has 12"x20" incandescent lights, gate motor and bell all manufactured by WCH. With 4 mechanical bells, it would be interesting to hear this crossing when activated...
