[4K] McFadden Ave. Railroad Crossing #2, Santa Ana, CA
Filmed on October 2, 2023.
Decided to attempt to catch this crossing again in action after not being able to make it in time to catch the activation last time. Caught the LOA32 Costa Mesa local passing the 2nd McFadden Avenue railroad crossing in Santa Ana, CA. That day, there were only two tanks that were delivered. Hopefully, that doesn't mean this local won't shut down anytime soon.

Cantilever's gated mast: WCH gate mechanism, RECO LED gatelights, and a WCH base
As you can see, from my previous rushed video, the remaining Safetran mechanical bell on this signal has been since replaced with the current NEG electronic bell. This marked that no more Safetran mechanical bells exist in the city of Santa Ana.
