This video may be having problems with playback due to KZhead processing and I blurr some stuff out and KZhead added a blurr at the beginning that I can't remove. Here is a railroad crossing compilation video of railroad crossings with unusual setup lights either having no front side lights on some signals. extra lights, weirdly arranged lights, and or even lights having off the bottom of bridges. Here's some I've filmed that I put together in this week's compilation video.
Quite some weird light setups indeed! It just goes to show ya that signal maintainers will do what it takes to make people stop.
Yea
@@lydiao599😊
Agreed
And people still don't.
That gate on the right at 4:00 is ENORMOUS, good lord! You can visibly see how much the gate motor struggles to lift it back up again.
It's litterally 3x the size of the rest of the crossing lmao
Signal Maintainers realy have building issues
11:54 UP 9901s horn is MUSICAL!!! Perfectly in tune
Seems odd but very unique and cool at the same time
Look
H vhmj
Nice rail fanning
They may be odd and weird, but as long as they work, I ain't complaining.
Great video on the trains, guys.
The first one isn’t that weird it’s just doesn’t have its back plate
I think it needs a few more lights. That overkill and ridiculous.
the first one looks like something put together with parts from home depot. joking aside, that crossing is fairly normal in the Nederlands, there is no foot bridge at the end of the transit station, they just build a crossing like that, sometimes they build them without the lights, just gates and bells. but the usual is a total of 2 lights by themselves and 2 gates for the whole crossing. and i am sure your wondering where is the rubber sun guard around the lights, im wondering why they missed that. other than that, the cantilever crossings shown have lights pointed at incoming traffic, and some of them like in the second clip have offside lights like in the center island, again, pointing at all incoming traffic. that includes traffic in both the left and right turn lanes
Nice bro! You should find more realistic crossing like this! Also i love ur videos!
6:49 that tram is using a WCH e-bell
What why in the begging of the video why is there a trangle thing in the corner of the screen
Neat setups.
I love rr crossings and the odd ones
That is an odd configuration! Nice video👍🏻🚂
Yeah
That was unusual crossing! Nice video btw!
6:38 That one's gonna give me nightmares.
How?
@@smiles29099 It just does, probably because of how far up the lights are.
@@RailfannerJones oh
Much longer freight trains are no doubt at night and late nights.
These are very realistic!
it’s real not realistic
How is Oakton - Skokie Station unusual?
The look of the crossing should answer itself comparing to others.
It's amazing how many people don't respect the red lights.
The train that went across the first one I’ve seen a cta train before in Chicago Illinois
That first clip shows the lights look pretty small compared to real life ones
They're 8 inch lights without the 20 inch backgrounds they typically have.
@@freebrickproductions they just look weird
@@ThatOneBayAreaRailfanDude Lights without backgrounds usually do, in my experience.
@@freebrickproductions indonisia also have no X
Have you seen New Jersey? They go crazy with the lights (Search up Belmar station 10th ave railroad crossing and you'll see what I mean)
USA: Let's put RR Crossing Lights on the side of bridges and put more gates than necessary Japan:
That's neat
Nice video!
Signals in weird places
Awesome
Odd railroad crossings
Nice video compilation
I like train is so cool
8:03 where was this one located? Im just curious. Edit: How come almost every crossing in this compilation has unsynchronized lights?
That one's located near the intersection of Folsom Blvd & S Watt Avenue in Sacramento, California.
6:29 OH GOD THE CROSSING HAD A GROWTH SPURT
Why are the lrt’s using a wch bell?
@1:13 Looks like the top pair is pointed more towards the left...
Pointed slightly to the left for both main traffic on Bradshaw rd and the left turn lane on Folsom Blvd to be able to see the lights. The back side top ones are also pointed slightly to the left for the opposite lanes.
Another weird one is Salida Blvd/Dakota in Salida!
cool crossings
I hear a Mechanical Bell but not sure what type it was but still great video
4:27 a truck just passed
Good video
Like 11 Greetings to the USA 🇺🇸my friend!! Thanks for uploading, have a nice day
You know how much I watching the train screams by at the railroad crossing
6:38 theres one crossing just like that in west alis Wisconsin
It could be Challenging to set up a Traffic Signal or Railroad Crossing Signals on a Grade Separated Bridges.
The ones for the no side lights are just t intersection
Sounds like New Zealand
The first one is the weirdest I’ve seen
South of Kohl's being on Earth the bells are loud
2:37 You misspelled the word "Lights" which resulted in "Lioghts"
That wch e bell on that light rail is cursed
En más mds la Folsom Blvd de los Sunrise Blvd S Watt Ave en la página de la misma manera que la música que mencionas es de un proyecto para ceuta Railroad Crossing Train es un proyecto
Woooooow very cool i am from Indonesia
He has no Rail road crossing sign on it😮
4:28 a truck just passed and almost hit the gates
its safe to say that the tram line with the blue yellow white livery sucks at making railroad crossings lol
Well actually I just showed the ones with odd setups since that is the compilation. SACRT Light Rail system owns a lot of nice setup crossings. Glenn Dr, Bidwell St, and Mine Shaft Ln has signals with no front lights because there is no roadway coming into them directly only turn lanes so they only need the side and back side lights. Watt Ave & Sunrise Blvd also are owned by SACRT and so far I haven't seen any other railroad or light rail system own crossings with extra sets of lights attached to the bottom of bridges.
You're right these are unusual odd light setups at these railroad crossings and yes I did notice the blur in the first one
0:25 what’d ya mean no clearance?!
3:20 Glen Dr is no longer special. LA Metro's K Line has the same basic setup at Oak Street, and High Street but with quad gates
Centinela Ave also
There's other crossings with the same setup as Glenn Dr already before it's an unusual setup though. I never said it was special its just unusual.Just because the K Line has new ones doesn't change that it's still an unusual setup all of them made simular are. This isn't a compilation saying these are the only crossings with these setups I never said or thought that. The K Line doesn't change anything. If SACRT built another crossing with this setup or any other system and railroad it still doesn't change anything because it's a unusual setup you won't find toe easily anywhere but they exist that's the point of this video.
@@MobileRailSpotterRxR Well it is actually more usual than you think either way, especially when it comes to compact corridors where the ROW is basically hugging the paralleling road.
@@sgtdebones But still not usually enough to come across every other crossing therefore still unusual.
@@MobileRailSpotterRxR Maybe in your area. A more unusual crossing is one like Walnut Ave on Metrolink in San Dimas, CA where the cantilever signal is positioned for the paralleling road (which make sense when you view that crossing), or the Estrelita Dr crossing on the Sprinter near Vista-San Marcos, CA
Nice video but it would have been nice to see some crossings that aren't in California.
I live in California. Only could get out of state videos when I'm on a vacation once every 1 or 2 years and not much when I do go out of state videos I can get. I don't go traveling for train videos.
0:00 what the Western Cullen Hayes?
I am sorry why is youtube bluring out a train station, should have put them on the lights where are their back covers
That’s safetran
Nice video
Very odd
The SD70Ms do have a weird function for Union Pacific!
En más de Roosevelt años de edad yo creo now se puede realizar un pago S Watt Ave y Más información Railroad Crossing Train RXR en la
Traffic lights are in jail
It doesn't look odd or weird to me.
What the heck! 0:89
More SD59MX
I’m somewhat early?
No you're late if you were early you would see a heart at the bottom of your comment
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 weird
Thos e bells are awful!! I like the old mech bells much better
