If you look up this crossing on Google Street View, you'll see that the signals used to be 8" with one mechanical bell, and three gateless signals. Somehow for some reason, NS decided to upgrade the two main signals with 12"x20" incandescent frames from Safetran with a Safetran type 3 electronic bell. The third mast signal has disappeared. Also, the traffic lights you see in the pictures are brand new as well. Maybe that's why the older signals were upgraded???
You can see the former 8" signals here:
Also, right next to this crossing is the "Hoffmann-la Roch" Pharmacticual plant, and there's a security guard outside the plant 24/7, which makes getting pictures a bit difficult. Pictures will show up, but just a little on future visits.
