Two 12"x20" signals protect this crossing. It's weird to see a 2 tracks sign below sidelights as seen in pictures 1 and 2.
BNSF owns the crossing, while UP, PNWR, and Amtrak all share these tracks. |

In case you're wondering, these signals serve a one-way road. |

There are 2 mechanical bells at this crossing. The bell seen in picture 8 is a newer Safetran bell. It belongs on the left signal. It rings loudly, and constantly. The other bell on the signal seen on picture 7 is a WCH bell that's having some trouble. It changes speeds, and sometimes even quits for a while!

The train you saw above blocked traffic for over 30 minutes! After the train left, the signals finally get a rest.
These pictures were taken January 2, 2006. |
