- This was the second crossing I got on May 12 along with the only train I saw that day. Once I got Clifton Pike Railroad Crossing timing out, I headed over to Vaughns Gap Road railroad crossing and wait for the westbound train to come, which the lash-up made my day; 5 Locomotives in the lashup, with 3 being UP and 2 being NS! Not too often I find these lashups, but this lashup sure made my day!
Also, not seen, but the left-handed signal has a backwards crossbuck, which I find it rather interesting because, sometime around 2013-2016, the normal crossbuck was replaced with a backwards crossbuck!
Crossing Info:
Signal on the left: 2 Pairs of Safetran 12x24 lights with Leotek EV Series LEDs, a Safetran gate mechanism, and NEG LED gatelights.
Signal on the right: 2 Pairs of WCH 12x24 lights with Leotek EV Series LEDs, a Safetran gate mechanism, NEG LED gatelights, and a WCH Mechanical Bell.

Nice crossing and catch sounds like the WCH mechanical bell is dying unfortunately though!
Great Catch! Sounds like the WCH mechanical bell is starting to die as it seems to click a lot.
Thanks!
Great video and crossing! Looks like the right-hand signal was installed in the 1980s. Shame the WCH bell sounds rather rough.
Thanks! Aside from the Safetran gate mechanism that replaced the original WCH gate mech sometime around and then, the right hand signal does look like it was installed in the 1980s.
freebrickproductions I think CSX did some maintenance at this crossing and they were able to fix the bell so it doesn't sound as rough anymore! It actually sounds pretty good now!
So I saw a train here today and it sounded like the bell was getting bad again unfortunately!
Love this!!! I was a conductor on the Nashville - Bruceton sub from 2006 to 2012. 🙂
Great video and crossing!
Great catch and crossing!! The WCH Mechanical Bell here sounds and rings like the last one that was replaced at Meadowview Rd here in Sacramento that had problems.
Thanks! Didn't know that...
Great catch and video!! Love the WCH Mechanical Bell!
Thanks!
That’s a shame that the WCH m bell is dying
I think they have fixed the bell since then!
@@ericshook9270 Ok
Great Catch and Crossing! Shame that it sounds like the WCH Mechanical Bell has some trouble ringing.
Thanks! Once the gate lowers, then it does have some trouble doing that. Other than that, it works fine to me.
Very good Railroad Crossing! Like :)
