This is a very unusual setup. The road is at an extreme angle to the track so it basically makes two 90-degree turns at the crossing.

In addition, there are several businesses with driveways immediately adjacent to the crossing that also have their own signals.

All together there are 6 signals, 32 lights, 5 electronic bells and 1 mechanical bell at this crossing.

The westbound cantilever, which is on the opposite side of the road from the tracks. In photo #4, the the signal on the far left is for a landfill driveway, and the signal in the middle right background is for a concrete company driveway.
