This one-track crossing gets 16 trains per a 24 hour period. All lights are 8", and there are no gates. There are 2 mechanical bells here. The bell has a WCH bell, and the bell in picture 3 is a Safetran bell. Picture 4 shows the crossing ID number. Kind of looks like a license plate?

Picture 10 shows a NS train approaching the crossing. It looks like the crossing still works very well.

More action shots. Picture 14 shows the traffic lights. All 4 directions flash red, and the red light on top of the yellow and green lights and left turn arrows is burned out, it's not flashing.
