I like this kind of crossing setup. Two 12"x20" cantilevers (possibly WCH) with no gates guard this crossing. There are no bells here at all.

A few miles south of this crossing this UP line merges with another UP line and then runs parallel to the nearby NS line and a KCS line into the east side yards.
