These signals are pretty new as of early 2005. All lights are incandescents, and the bells are General Signals Type 2. The traffic lights that are before the signals are supposed to prevent traffic from stopping on the tracks.

 

This train got about 3/4 through the crossing, when it stopped for switching. I ended up abandoning the train after about 5 minutes of filming because it was getting too cold. The temperature fell to the low 10s, and it was getting unbearable to continue filming.
