Hi all,
Does anyone know if there are any routes containing the little flashing red “X” signal seen facing tracks at some quiet zone crossings? I thought I saw one in a route but can’t seem to find it. I know it doesn’t operate but would like to add it as an extra bit of detail.

I think that I saw some in the Peninsula/Racetrack or Miami West palm Beach.

Miami West Palm Beach definitely has them.

I've a good memory for whatever I can remember!
If you wait for perfection you will never do anything but it doesn’t stop you wanting it.
Age doesn’t stop you, it just slows you down.
If you only learn one thing in life - learn to think how your actions and words affect others BEFORE doing or saying.

This is what I'm talking about...
It's a crew activation indicator. Turns on and flashes a red "X" when the signal activates to indicate the crossing is protected and the crew can go through without using the horn.

I personally have not seen this device in any route.
