Walnut Grove Xing Bridge
Posted July 16, 2008, by Mark (mlstonescafe [at] yahoo [dot] com)

During the summer when temperatures reach 100+ the bridge expands making it difficult to close and open. The open and close sequence changes in high heat and a "jog" button is used to settle the bridge back into place to drive the pin.
