This is another one of those crossings that faces a possible abandonment. There are two 12"x20" signals. There are two mechanical bells on top of both gates of both signals. The latest report from 1992 shows only two crossbucks and one stop sign protecting this crossing. |

There used to be another pair of lights here, but now all that's left are wires. |
The left light on the far right signal is turned backwards. |

Sometime between December, 2005 and February, 2006, the signal with the missing lights was demolished, and this new signal went up in its place. First impressions tell me that some extra features were skimped a little.
There are no side lights for other traffic to see what's coming, and also, the advance warning sign was also wiped out as well. There's no replacement as of yet. However though, the new signal has ball L.E.D. lights. I do like the addition of the mechanical bell though.
Picture 12 shows what's left of the old gate from the old signal. It's being left to rust, since it's beyond repair. |
