EDIT 10/10/16: This video has reached over 100,000 views! My first video to do so! Thanks to everyone who's watched this video so far!
Recorded on 7-29-15
Signal on the left: 2 pairs of US&S 8 inch lights, a General Signals Type-2 electronic bell, a WCH gate mechanism, and RECO LED gate lights.
Signal on the right: 2 pairs of US&S 8 inch lights, a WRRS mechanical bell, a WCH gate mechanism, and RECO gate lights.
This was the second train I caught up in Nashville, and it had an ES40DC leading an AC6000CW, both of which were in YN3. This was my first time seeing an AC6000 in YN3.
It's also rather hard to tell if the bell on the signal on the left is a Type 1 or a Type 2, mostly due to how loud the WRRS mechanical bell is. One of the lenses in the signal on the left's lights is actually not fit in properly.
This crossing is rather cool as there's an overpass built atop of 18th Avenue here.
Edit 5-14-16: This video has managed to get over 50,000 views in less than a year since it was uploaded! Wow!
