CSX here in FL is shutting down a crossing permantly becuase of a new road being built. I wanna know if they ever ditch the older crossing gates? Then First Coast RWY. (G&W network) has a pile of ol' junk and spotted a switch lever!Be a cool piece to have!

I had bought some railroad light parts on ebay & had a crossbuck sign with the blinking lights in my driveway. I left the stuff at the house when I got divorced. Pretty cool stuff...
