Loved this crossing. Fab name beautiful area, & pretty white picket fencing , Nice sunshades on wig wams & nice alarm, stunning house next to crossing & nice view of the train pulling into the station. Fab catches. ❤😊👍
Great video! Is it just me, or did the alarms in the first activation skip after the third or fourth double flash? I also have to wonder what would happen if the flasher relays failed to engage properly, would they just keep doing the double flash throughout the entire activation? We also have wayside signals similar to that one over here as well. Railroads call them "non-automatic signals" though railfans will often call them "approach" or "distant" signals. They're used on lines that don't have signals (known here as "dark territory"), and are placed ahead of a signal along the line, usually at some kind of interlocking or a spring-switch signal at a siding. As the name suggests, they are not hooked into any track circuits, and basically only indicate to approaching train crews if they need to prepare to stop at the next signal. Railroads will use special plates mounted underneath the heads to identify these signals, for example: NS has a yellow banner, CSX uses a white round plate with "APP" written on it, and UP uses a square plate with the letter "D" written on it. There's also a subclass of the non-automatic signals, known as "fixed-approach signals". As the name suggests, they can only ever show a yellow light, and do not give any indication to the status of the track beyond the signal, or even what the next signal is showing. The vast majority of the surviving semaphore signals here in the US are fixed-approach ones.
Excellent video as always 👍
