Crossing info: Safetran and WCH 12x24 lights with a mixture of WCH 2nd Generation LEDs and Leotek? LEDs, Modern Industries 12x20 lights, A WCH Mechanical Bell, and RECO LED Gatelights. I went back to this crossing to get it in action again, but I was too late at this crossing. Nice catch though, with 2 idiots. Now this crossing is sort of an interesting one. This crossing used to have MI 8 inch lights on the side and MI 12x20 lights on the uphead. Then, sometime around 2013 (and no later than 2017,) There were many changes at this crossing. First, the railroad signal on the far left had been replaced. Likely a car hit it and knocked down the signal, making this crossing getting replacement. And then the signal on the near right reamins un-touched, until, CSX replaced the Modern Industries 8 Inch lights with Safetran 12x24 lights with WCH 2nd Generation LEDs. This is the only crossing in Springfield to have: A Cantilever crossing Modern Industries Equipment A Mechanical Bell The other crossings in Springfield have a base, Safetran/WCH Equipment, Electronic Bells, and more.
