Brock Road Railroad Crossing, Brownsboro, AL

*originally recorded on 1-21-26* Signal on the left: 3 pairs of Safetran 12x20 inch lights with GE Uniform Look LEDs, a General Signals Type 3 electronic bell, a Safetran gate mechanism, and RECO LED gate lights. Signal on the right: 1 pair of Safetran 12x20 inch lights with GE Uniform Look LEDs, 1 pair of Safetran 12x24 inch lights with GE Uniform Look LEDs, a Safetran gate mechanism, and RECO LED gate lights. After catching 289, I decided to hop over to Governors Drive and wait on the HMCR to depart, as they had had a train tied-down along Heart of Huntsville Drive with the locomotives idling like they were going to do a run. Unfortunately, after a few hours of waiting there, I still hadn't seen anything, and I decided to head back up to downtown to see what was going on. Sure enough, it turned-out that the locomotives had been shut-down and apparently the HMCR wasn't going to do a run on that day, slightly annoyingly. As such, I decided to switch my scanner back to the local NS road channel as I headed back to the Memphis East to see if anything was approaching, when I immediately heard a 72Z call the signal at West End Huntsville Storage. As I wasn't sure how much time I'd have to beat it to literally any crossing around downtown Huntsville and get set-up, I decided to hop on I-565 and chase it out to this crossing in Brownsboro. Thankfully, I was able to beat it here with plenty of time to spare, and here we get to see my second train of the day: NS 72Z flying through Brownsboro with a pair of BNSF ES44ACs pulling on the head-end and a BNSF SD70ACe pushing as the train's DPU. Apparently, since I last recorded this crossing, NS replaced the remaining RECO incandescent gate lights on the closer signal with more RECO LEDs, making this crossing fully LED as a result. Thankfully, nothing else appears to have changed to this crossing since that previous video, however. https://www.rxrsignals.com/Alabama/A-F/Brownsboro/Brock/ If you like my videos, feel free to leave me a tip on Ko-Fi!
