Part 1 of this crossing can be seen here • Level Crossing, Illabo...
This is the Olympic Highway level crossing at Illabo, New South Wales. It is located between Cootamundra and Junee, on the ARTC main line from Sydney to Melbourne.
I first filmed here in 2017 and the crossing has remained unchanged until recently when the dying Westinghouse hybrid bell on the eastern signal was replaced by a new Siemens electronic bell. The Western Cullen Hayes mechanical bell on the opposite signal also received some maintenance and has been rotated 90 degrees to face the oncoming traffic.
