This crossing is located on the UP National Ave. Industrial Lead.
This crossing has "EM" type gated
signals with 8" Safetran lights with Electro-Tech's L.E.D.s! There's one
mechanical bell on the eastbound (west) signal. In the track views you
can see that one of the two tracks was in the process of being removed.
This was once part of Chicago and Northwestern's passenger main through
downtown Milwaukee. Now UP just uses it for local switching of a few
industries.
Here is a link to a video of the crossing in action.
Between 2010 and 2020, the only changes were the addition of blue ENS tags, the track signs being removed, and the gates being replaced/restriped.
