Orr Road Railroad Crossing, Charlotte, NC

This was the fourth crossing I got on my Charlotte, NC trip and my last crossing I got on May 27, 2019. After I recorded 5th Street, I headed on down towards the Norfolk Southern Charlotte District line, which sees lots of trains a day. When I was coming through the line, I saw a green light for an eastbound train, only the find out it's actually an Amtrak Piedmont train! This was also the only Amtrak train I caught on my whole trip. So then, I then set up at Orr Road, which this crossing is 4-quad gated.

I can confirm that the Safetran Type 3 E-Bell here has been replaced with a General Signals Type 3 E-Bell.

Great video! Unusual that the bells shut off when only the outer gates have lowered.
