Signal on the right: 2 pairs of Federal Signal 8 inch lights, a GRS gate mechanism, and RECO LED gate lights.
After catching the coal train, Ethan and I went on up to this crossing in Smyrna to wait for our next train. After about another half-hour of waiting, this southbound military train, S821, came rolling through with a YN2 Dash-9 leading a YN3 ES40DC! This was easily my best catch of the day.
As you can see, since I last recorded this crossing back in 2016, it has thankfully remained largely unchanged. Unfortunately, several years ago (I believe back in 2018), the original Modern Industries mechanical bell here was replaced with the current NEG e-bell. Thankfully, the 8 inch lights and GRS gate mechs still remain in service here and hopefully will for many more years to come.
