Great video! I noticed that strange modification yesterday whilst on the C Class tour yesterday, certainly looks odd! Amazing the signals haven’t been replaced!
Thanks! The only pedestrian crossing in the area to be upgraded is Marulan, which received swing gates a year or two ago, but it's nice that the other crossings are mostly untouched :)
I find it odd that the crossing surface here are just thin sheets of wood (or metal) and not thick pieces of concerete that go in between the rails! 10:36 nice to see some boxcars!
Thanks! The crossing surface has wooden boards with metal sheeting over the top which is primitive compared to newer pedestrian crossings. It will probably be upgraded eventually, and hopefully the new surface will be wider.
Nice video! Is it just me or are those signals quite rusty for something only 25 years old? Ah i dunno, it looks like it came from the 1970's to me. That modification is REALLY weird

Awesome video, gosh places such as Exeter are so nice they seem like the perfect spot to take a train video
Thanks!
Great video! Love the thumbnail👍👍
Thanks!
Great video!
Thanks!
Nice Crossing! What gate mechanism does this crossing have?
Thanks! The crossing uses GRS mechanisms which were recycled from old semaphore signals, not sure of the exact model number if that is what you mean.
Nice video!
Thanks!

Interesting how they decided to keep the existing GRS semaphore signals when they did that modification to the nearby slope.
Yes I guess they didn't think the crossing was busy enough to justify new swing gates, but it certainly makes for an odd setup!

Thanks! The gate mechanisms were recycled from semaphore signals, and would be at least 60 years old.
Nice!
Thanks!
Good old Rochester ny
