Weird Unique and Unusual Railroad Crossings

Описание: A compilation of unusual railroad crossing signals on the Long Island Railroad that I have filmed so far. These include extremely tall signals with some having lights mounted high up in the air and some with side mounted bells. A couple with no left turn and no right turn light up signs, a Harmon cantilever with no lights above the road at Covert Ave in Stewart Manor, one signal with the bell mounted on an extension by a pair of lights at Broadway in Bethpage, two 4 mechanical bell crossings with one at William Floyd Pkwy and one in Queens at Little Neck Pkwy with 3 dead bells, warning speakers at Wellwood Ave on the Central Branch in Lindenhurst, and four Warning 2nd Train Coming signs with speakers at Stewart Ave in Bethpage, NY
