Signal on the left: 2 pairs of Safetran 12x24 inch lights with WCH 2nd Generation LEDs, a dying WCH mechanical bell, a WCH gate mechanism, and NEG LED gate lights.
Signal on the right: 1 pair of Modern Industries 8 inch lights, 1 WCH 8 inch light, 1 WABCO 8 inch light, 2 pairs of Modern Industries 12x24 inch lights, a dying WCH mechanical bell, a WCH gate mechanism, and RECO LED gate lights.
After I caught the Bainbridge local, they finished up their work and A724 got onto work in Bainbridge themselves, including dropping off the GP38-2 they were hauling for the local there. After a few minutes, they continued on west to Dothan with just the AC44CW and ES44AH.
This crossing is another nice one, as it appears these signals are from the SCL and were installed in the late 70s. Back in 2016, the far signal was all 8 inch (with three WCH lights and one WABCO light) while the cantilever's rear lights were both WCH 8 inch lights. However, sometime between 2016 and 2019, the far signal got an LED upgrade and the WABCO light managed to make its way onto the gate mast of the cantilever, along with the cantilever getting all of its lights repainted. However, it is still a rather nice crossing, though both mechanical bells do sound like they're dying, as one sounds like it clicks with each ring and the other begins to struggle when the gates start to lower. It is nice to see some Modern Industries 8 inch lights though, especially along this line.
