=================================================================================

This video was shot at the Main Street grade crossing in Norristown, Pennsylvania.

After attending a train show in Oaks, PA, me and my buddy john were on our way home when we stumbled upon this SEPTA line. Not being from the area, we had no idea if a train was coming or not, luckily i found a commuter who said that one was in fact coming, so i got into position for it.

Unfortunally, due to the train show and this train being last minute, i did not have my tripod with me, so i do appoligize in advance for the shakiness.

Crossing Info:

Signal #1 A US&S cantilever with 2 pairs of Safetran 12x24 inch LED lights, and a dead Safetran mechanical bell. Also the signal has 1 8 inch WRRS amber light and a blackout sing which reads "NO RIGHT TURN" when the crossing is active. The gate, which is on a separate pole has a Safetran gate motor.

Signal #2: A US&S cantilever with 2 pairs of Safetran 12x20 inch LED lights and a General Signals Type 2 Electronic bell. The Gate, which is on a seperate pole has a Safetran Gate motor.

This is my first time filming SEPTA, and i do plan on getting out here again real soon!

Enjoy!!!
