Crossing Info: Modern Industries 8 Inch and 12x20 Lights, WCH 12x24 Lights, Mixture of RECO Incandescent and LED Gatelights, and an NEG E Bell. This was the second catch I caught. It was kind of interesting, 3 CSX ET44AHs lead a long Mixed Freight Train through Hendersonville, Tennessee, A.K.A My hometown. This crossing here is interesting, as this crossing dates back to the L&N Time. The crossing has a Modern Industries Cantilever at both crossings I think? Then, sometime around the time I was born, the crossing on the far left was likely knocked down by a car. It still had the WCH Mechanical Bell. Then sometime around 2011 and 2013, the WCH Mechanical Bell was replaced with an NEG E Bell. This is also the only crossing in Hendersonville to have 8 Inch and 12x20 Lights, WCH and Modern Industries equipment, and uses RECO Incandescent Gate Lights! This crossing also doesn't have any Safetran Equipment!! It is also the only crossing to have a Cantilever crossing! That is the closet crossing to have a Cantilever at this crossing.
