After I caught the lite power move, I went and documented some worded pedestrian signals I had found earlier in the day before continuing east documenting crossings. However shortly after I pulled up to this crossing, I was about to start documenting it when I heard a horn to my west, so I quickly grabbed both of my cameras and just barely got set-up in time to record this eastbound NERR gravel train pulled by a pair of B40-8s, which I then chased east after I had documented this crossing.

Again, like most crossings on the NERR mainline, this crossing was installed in the early to mid-2000s, likely replacing a pair of crossbucks as well. I'd say this is one of the more boring installs along the line, especially since the original 7 inch NEG gate lights have since been replaced by these 4 inch LED ones.
