Rear of East side cantilever. It has a WCH Mechanical bell.
Front of West side cantilever. It is the same as the East side, but with a General Signals Electronic Bell.
The median signal shown in picture 2 that was facing sideways. It guards a road that is parallel to the tracks. Note lack of bell on this signal.

A Southwest view. You can see a Wayside signal as well. Both the crossing and the Wayside signal are controlled by the relay case that you can barely see to the far left.

 

Not shown in the pictures above, there was an 8 foot piece of gate laying by the relay case. I wonder why it was left there? Anyone could of taken it.
