Equipment & Materials Guide of highway- rail grade-crossing appli­ cations, incorporating constant warn­ ing time and motion detection control, crossing island train detection, vital input monitoring, vital relay drive output control and ground fault detection. Vital serial communication ports enable the ElectroLogIXS XP4 to communicate with ElectroLogISX, EC5 or VHLC systems. It can be expanded to add radio signaling capabilities or to operate remotely through a vital serial data port. Phone: 800-825-7090.

Lite gate arm light assembly is engineered to be the most-durable gate light available. Molded from impactresistant polycarbonate material, the one-piece device is design­ed to prevent breakage be­tween the lamp and junction box. Several mounting options are available. Phone: 847758-9860. ESCO Equipment Service Co.—ESCO Safety Strobe Kit features Lightman® Xenon Strobes, the brighest portable lights available today. Various lens colors are available. The Lightman can be attached to equip­ment, traffic cones, worn on reflective vest belts and clothing, anyplace where high visibility is critical. Weight 3.5 ounces. Phone: 847-758-9860.

Phone: 918307-0098. GE Transportation Rail—The SCX-1 (Solid State Crossing Controller) is a fully-programmable, microprocessorbas­ed, AC/DC track circuit system de­sign­ed for railroad-crossing control. The system provides reliable shunting in rusty rail conditions. It requires minimal wiring to implement and a stand­ard crossing application program (STDXING) is included. Phone: 800-825-7090. GE Transportation Rail—The HXP-3 (Highway Crossing Processor) series of constant warning time crossingcontrol units is designed to provide consistent detection times with varying train speeds. Fashioned to interface ad­vanced mi­cro­processor technology with long-term reliability, ease

of maintenance and design flexibility. It is available in two mo­dels: HXP-3 provides stand-alone operations for single- or double-track applications; HXP-3R2 provides built-in redundancy for single- or double-track applications. Phone: 800-825-7090.

GE Transportation Rail—HXP/PMD-3 (Highway Crossing Processor/ Phase Motion Detector) is an entry-level predictor with enhanced software allowing the user to switch to the predictor func­tion simply by selecting the constant-warning option on the menu. The unit is available in three models. HXP/ PMD-3D offers standalone operation for double-track applications. HXP-PMD-3R2 provides built-in redundancy for single-track applications. HXP/PMD -3R2 provides built-in redundancy for single- or double-track applications. Phone: 800-825-7090.

GE Transportation Rail—The ElectroLogIXS XP4 supports a wide range

GE Transportation Rail—The GE four quadrant gate control system can operate exit gates in timed, dynamic or fallback modes of operation. GE has developed a standard configuration using a combination of ElectroLogIXS modules, along with a master program that enables users to select the operating characteristics particular to their application. Phone: 800-825-7090.

GE Transportation Rail—The GE one-track, redundant motion detector utilizes ElectroLogIXS modules to provide redundant train detection along with vital I/O. An internal gate and lamp control module can also be installed to handle most typical installations, reducing the need for external equipment. Phone: 800-825-7090. General Signals, Inc.—Signal lenses, roundels and reflectors. The product line also includes highway crossing bells, gate arms, gate lights, end-of-train lights, and patented gate-keeper apparatus designed to prevent destruction of gate arms when gate crashers violate a downed crossing gate. Phone: 812-474-4256.
