Wig Wag Railroad Crossing in Colton, CA
Here's my latest wig wag railroad crossing video. the filming location is in Colton, California with Union Pacific Riverside Industrial Lead/Riverside Job on 12/21/10 in rainy day! This is ex Pacific Electric Red car trolley line. (Southern Pacific & PE depot in the beginning of the video.) UP 1402, 1533(it was a SP unit until beginning of 2010), 1427 Many thanks to Dan's Wig Wag RR Crossing website for finding this location & info. I think I saw every single active wig wag railroad crossing in Socal. So, What's next? Try to video other wig wags in HD.

You don’t see that train signal a lot, coo, man. This sounds like my crash/ride on my drums, but a little heavyer sound though

Snuffy you should film the Redlands wig wag in action located close to this location at Nevada St. I can never catch this and the Redlands wig wag in action. Looks like they fix the light on this wig wag. Thanks for sharing this Snuff ;O)~

We used to have to sets of these signals when I was growing up in Manhattan Beach California. We had a spur line for the Santa Fe railway that went to Hermosa Beach. Its not there anymore.

I live in Redlands and sometimes for kicks if the trains are moving slower than 10 mph I will jump on it and ride it for miles. until it starts picking up speed and I got to jump off lol.
