    This is one of the first train videos I remember watching back in my early days on UA-cam.

      The ped RXR signal's light bulbs are over the X shaped sign and under the X shaped sign. LOL!

    I Remember This Video... And It Was one of My Favs. I Used To Watch The Whole Thing Almost Every Day..
    And The Signal With The Vertical Lights Kinda Remind Me of Those Japanese Railroad Crossing Signals

    This is way out of my area but I like western US trains. I film in the midwest and east.

    Lol, This Was The BEST, and also one of the first and most memorable Videos I've ever watched When I Was Young. I also remember Watching The Whole Thing And Just Remembering What Each Car Looked Like, and what attracted me to watch this was
    ..that weird freakin' signal with vertical mounted lights that was in this video.. lmao

    @Vetts20 11 років тому +2

    Outta curiousity, was this a planned shoot? ike is this a daily train and you waited there for it? or was it just a lucky catch?

  • @kjfitzgerald593
    @kjfitzgerald593 10 років тому +1

    She did good with that video. High fives to her!
    I've never seen RXR signals purposely mounted in the "bouncing ball" configuration before. I noticed at the end that the traffic signal equipment had the no right turn sign lit up like it should when the RXR signals are activated.

    I remember watching this in my childhood. Very good video. I feel so nostalgic after finding and watching these videos again. Is that ex-Santa Fe locomotive leading freight train?

    @swedepea Carousel Crossing is also right by the Circus Track...due of course to the Carousel being in the background.

    Sadly a lot of people choose b and c and end up getting injured or losing their life trying to beat a train across the tracks. Obviously common sense people would choose A

    Rather than the same view, I would like to have also seen the signals to the right.
    Nice job!
    Pedestrian signal makes more sense than the (o)T(o) arrangement.

    Why the verticalamps?
    Pedestrian signal?
    Nice! Compact and less expensive than cross arms.
    If done for vehicles, and some idiot got himself hit by a train, he could claim that he did not undertstand these non conforming, non standard signals.
