This crossing in on UP's Clinton Subdivision.

 

The crossing protection consists of two gated signals and one mast signal. All of the lights are Harmon 12"x24" incandescent. The gate motors are WCH, but the gate arm supports are MI. There is a Safetran mechanical bell! Considering that most of the other bells on the UP mainline are electronic, this is a nice surprise. Unfortunately, I have a feeling the mechanical bell won't be around much longer.

 

According to the FRA, a pair of wigwags were here prior to 1993, but I think the wigwags were replaced in the mid-to-late 1980s.

The road takes a 90º turn immediately South of the crossing. The mast signal was installed to address this.
