Signal on the left: 2 pairs of Safetran 12x24 inch lights, 1 pair of Safetran 12x20 inch lights, and a Safetran Type 3 electronic bell. Signal on the right: 1.5 pairs of Safetran 12x24 inch lights, 1.5 pairs of Safetran 12x20 inch lights, and a General Signals Type 2 electronic bell. After the track work completed, NS A12 came into town (while I was still north of it) and got onto the active portion of the NS Champion Paper Branch, making it my second catch today. They had a huge train today, so it had three engines this time around: an RP-E4C Road Slug, a GP40-2, and an RP-E4D Yard Slug! This guy was easily my best catch of the day. Here we see the train shoving up the branch line with the caboose in the lead. Nothing has really changed here either since I last recorded the crossing, though only one guy ran the signals while they were active this time around, and even then, it looks like he didn't really have time to stop. http://www.rxrsignals.com/Alabama/Courtland/ALTUS72_AL20/
