The Rockville MD Marc station features a variety of trains, from MARC, Amtrak, and CSX, along with waysides facing both directions visible from the platform, but it also features this unique crossing setup. Note the procedure of stopping before the platform, then entering it. Also note, the bell turns off once the train reaches the platform, not the crossing, so when the train stops right at the trigger point, it shuts the bell off but the red lights keep flashing. The "train" light stays steady at this point as well.
