This crossing is on the Iowa Northern's ex-Rock Island line between Cedar Rapids and Waterloo.

 

These signals were installed in 2002. Before that, the crossing was passive (the old crossbuck posts were never removed).

 

All of the signal equipment is WCH, with one exception. There are two electronic bells, one is WCH, the other is a GS Type 2. All of the lights are 12"x20" incandescent.
