Hey i been on an amtrak from San Jose CA to Reno Nv, and from car its 5 hr.s to Reno but by the train it was 8 hr.s so dont use Amtrak if U are doin the same thing
That's basically the same question as why do railfans like trains? Your answer would probably be because there are different locomotives, cars, MOW, etc. Same thing here. There are different lights sizes, bells, gates, etc.
I have been to and through that crossing many times over the years. I have ridden the Zephyr through that crossing and I have done a track sice vid of the Zephyr at that crossing. Do you know what day of the week or year this vid was shot? Reason I am asking is that I may know the crew who was working this train.

There are some crossings that are rather impressive, like the one on Hulen Street in Fort Worth, Texas.

the first gate light is LED and it flashes twice, while the other one is incandescent.

The LED Gate light is a Aurora Gate LED.
