*originally recorded on 3-28-22*
Signal on the left: 2 pairs of Safetran 12x24 inch lights, a dying WCH mechanical bell, a Safetran gate mechanism, and Safetran gate lights.
Signal on the right: 2 pairs of Safetran 12x24 inch lights, a WCH mechanical bell, a Safetran gate mechanism, and Safetran gate lights.
This was the next crossing I caught TA-Local at, and it's another nice one. The signals here appear to have been installed by CSX back in the early-90s, and pretty much haven't changed since. Both signals appear to still retain their original fiberglass gate arms, though CSX restriped both of them at some point. Thankfully, both signals do still retain a full set of their original incandescent Safetran gate lights, which I'm especially glad to see.
Both of the original WCH mechanical bells are still around as well, which is also nice to see. Unfortunately, the far one is definitely dying, as it only rings while the gate arm on that signal is lowering, clicking noticeably the rest of the time the bell is on (which is both before and after the gate arm on that signal lowers. Hopefully the FGAR gets that bell fixed.
The crossing also tail-ring malfunctioned after the train had passed for some reason.
