This crossing may have had 4 gates in the past. But now it's just a quarter-barrier crossing.

[@Indianlifelines]

outstanding

[@kon1przejazdy]

finally decent e-bell sound
interesting how side signals are soviet but with original lights removed and with ISAF signal heads installed on them
you can even see remains of the original light brackets
the system is also soviet

[@AlpheccaMeridiana]

how does a romanian soviet crossing look like the russian one?

[@kon1przejazdy]

@@AlpheccaMeridiana because those signals were probably manufactured in soviet union so obviously they were made from the same design

[@adriancruceru9555]

the lights arent isaf they are elba 2s1

[@kon1przejazdy]

@@adriancruceru9555 the lights themselves are from elba, but the whole bracket array with lights and crossbuck seems to be designed and manufactured in ISAF

Rode lichten: 8 vermute ich mal.

[@nishibharti2795]

The gates should be way longer gates cuz a few drivers go past through the gate and the crossing not even knowing that there is a train train coming

[@nishibharti2795]

That's a kinda werid bell

[@CraigBaker96837]

There were four gates, at one point. That's evident by the bases of the median signals having motors, which are likely dead.

[@nishibharti2795]

The sirens are kinda loud but otherwise i think this level crossing is OK. But notice how people are casually crossing after the lights went red. Just like Italy :P
Woulda been cool to see how it worked in the past though, given that it had old half-barriers on the other side.

[@kon1przejazdy]

maybe it originally had 4 gates covering whole road
current gate placement is kinda stupid because everyone can just conviniently go around that short gate

[@CFRTrainSpotter]

@@kon1przejazdy yeah, thats why it would be cool to see it in the past :P

[@vladutcotarlan2396]

Yeah, the middle signals used to have gates too, but because they became defective, they removed them. So, right now, this crossing has remained with only 2 gates, which are half-barriers.

[@kubikwaterrr2592]

Sounds like Thailand of Bangladesh

[@TudorCrossings]

If am i correct, this is one of 2 crossings with median signals, the other one being in Lugoj, south east of Timisoara

[@adriancruceru9555]

what is a median signal?

[@TudorCrossings]

@@adriancruceru9555 a signal in the middle (on the median, in the middle)

no. at least not now, since no visits to Serbia have been planned. also Serbia has unfavourable roaming conditions so i doubt he will go anytime soon...
