Both 2 TRACKS signs are in triangle shape! These are very, very rare!
There are two mechanical bells at the crossing, although one is very hard to see.

This crossing is in a quiet zone. As you can see crossing gate violators face a fine of $1,000. |
I have a feeling that the mechanical bells go silent after the gates lower due to the nature of the quiet zone.
Pictures 1-6 were taken on November 19, 2006.

On March 13, 2007 we find the crossing in action! I was right about the bells!
The bells ring from activation to when the gates fully lower, and when the gates rise to deactivation. When the gates are in the lowered position, they go silent.

On December 13, 2007 we find that the old triangular track signs have been replaced with more modern ones. The signs were replaced in mid 2007, but pictures were unable to be obtained then.
Picture 10 faces North, while picture 11 faces South. |

The WRRS mechanical bell in picture 18 has a minor problem with it. It rings fine when the gates start up to when the gates lower, and when the gates rise to deactvation, but when the gates are lowered fully, the bell clicks. |
