This is one of my favorite crossings. This is just south of the Koppers crossing. This is an ungated 12"x20" crossing. There's only one General Signals electronic bell shown in picture 2. It's unknown what type of bell this is at this time.
Picture 3 faces West.
The signal in picture 1 is low enough that anyone around 6' tall can touch the top of the 20" backgrounds. Just don't look into the 12"x20" red lights during activation!
The FRA says this crossing is a public crossing for some strange reason. Andrew says it's private. |

This set of tracks is a weird set. There's nothing guarding this track. It doesn't even show up anywhere on the FRA's website. The rust on the rails, plus the fact that it dead ends not too far down the line on picture 6. The tracks are also fenced off right after the grade. |

On November 26, 2023, Angels Railfan made a return trip for better close up pictures of this crossing, along with these gateless signals soon to be removed.

backwards crossbucks, strangely enough.

These gateless signals have since been replaced with newer ones, which are also gateless interestingly enough:
