  • Yea, it appears the person who got hit died here. There's a cross near the mile post that bears a person's name on it.

    My guess is the Greenbrier Parkway crossing will be done around January-2017

      Could be a bit later. I'll probably send an e-mail to the city about it.

    Quick question are there any trains on the HMCR line that operate on Sunday

    • @freebrickproductions

      Occasionally. Depends on if they need to make a run on Sunday or not.

    That should be a abandoned railroad crossing, not the signals but because there is such little traffic on the road.

      It probably won't be getting removed though. I actually do see plenty of people who use it, despite it not being a very busy crossing.

      freebrickproductions do you think it was a good or a bad idea for the family to sue Norfolk southern?

    • @freebrickproductions

      tHEWHateVER and the sucidal biscuit I forget if they ever actually sued NS or not, but either way, these signals were installed as a result of that accident.

      The crossing is not in a bad condition but the E-Bell on the left or right is sick and needs replacing and maybe if they replace it they properly add a GS Type-3 E-Bell! That might make a mixture. They will sometime also replaced rest of the incandescent lights with RECO LEDs and maybe if the lights all had LEDs 12x24 inch lights! SIEMENS GATES MECHANISMS, TOO IF THEY CAN.

      Shea TrainSpotter2006 The signal with four pairs of lights has the sick e-bell. Probably they'll install LEDs when NS feels that they should start doing more LED upgrades of lines, and the gate mechanisms will likely only be replaced when they die or if the signals get replaced entirely.

    It would actually be nice if the lights were incandescent cause let's be honest it's way cheaper and way easier to repair

    • @freebrickproductions
      @freebrickproductions  7 років тому

      They're most likely going to be LED.

      freebrickproductions these signals if I recall correctly we're installed either between 1999 or 2002 I can't remember

    • @ThunderboltFan2000

      I was born in 1999 so these signals are about as old as I am
