Level Crossing, Tailem Bend SA, Australia.
This is the Trevena Road level crossing at Tailem Bend, SA. It is located on the line between Adelaide and Melbourne, while the second track is the branch line to Pinnaroo which is currently out of service.
Both gated signals have Western Cullen Hayes gate mechanisms and Henkes & Harmon lights with 1st generation Western Cullen Hayes LED's, mounted on WRRS brackets. The western signal has a Westinghouse base while the eastern signal has a Western Cullen Hayes base and a Safetran Type 3 electronic bell. Both of the gates are round and use a design which seems to be rare, although I'm not sure of their maker.
There is also a gate-less signal on the eastern side of the crossing for traffic approaching from Lime Kiln Road. It has a Western Cullen Hayes base (with FS logo) and Henkes & Harmon lights with 1st generation Western Cullen Hayes LED's, mounted on a McKenzie & Holland bracket.
The train shown in the video is 6MA5 freight from Melbourne to Adelaide, with locomotives NR63 and NR15.
