Most extreme/bizarre railroad crossings

[TheCatalyst31]

The crossing at the University Ave/Campus Drive split in Madison, WI is pretty bad. The angle might not be as badly oblique as some of the others on this thread, but the number of lanes and the adjacent intersection make it interesting. https://goo.gl/maps/21mq3N2onFVgu4S7A

This is especially bad for bicyclists, because there is a small downhill in the eastbound direction on the University Ave approach to the intersection. I once watched someone go over the handlebars here at about 20 mph. He walked away (the front wheel was bent up pretty badly) but I always wondered if he needed any dental work afterwards.

Madison has a few others... while it was removed years ago, the siding for coal deliveries to the old UW heating/power plant used to result in trains blocking Charter Street for a solid 15 minutes as they approached from the east, stopped, and backed into the coal plant. On the other side of town, the tracks run diagonally through the Blair/Wilson/John Nolen/Williamson intersection. https://goo.gl/maps/8ufEPrPQjyitE3S89

The John Nolen/Olin intersection also has tracks running through it diagonally, though at least one leg of that intersection is just the entrance to a park. Bonus danger points for not having a gate on the bike path, though.

Northeast of Madison, there are two grade crossings on a four-lane, 65 MPH section of US 151. They're definitely active crossings too; here's a video of the Beaver Dam crossing in action.

There's also this crossing on the freeway segment of WA-432, which had regular train traffic until a few years back.

I recently found this in North Walpole, NH - a crossing on a two-way road where only one side has a gate - and was wondering if there were any more examples. This isn't particularly crazy but I don't want to start a thread for something so specific.

What's up with those Yield signs for pedestrians? Do people walk down the train tracks?

Probably something to do with the sidewalk ending on the north side with pedestrians needing to be in the road to get by the crossing.  And maybe the bridge that closed ages ago.

Looks like there was a second gate there previously, just one of the gate masts was wiped-out (most likely by a vehicle) when street view went though:

That being said, I am aware of a good few crossings around the US with only one gate arm at them, despite being on two-way roads:

Video of the above crossing as well:

I remember seeing a similar crossing somewhere in Ohio years ago on a former Conrail line, though I can't recall exactly where off the top of my head.
EDIT: Found it! Unfortunately, per street view, it has since been replaced with a standard gated install with two gates:

I suspect that originally, there would've been a second signalized crossing on the other side of the creek, for the line that used to be where the trail now is, which would've had a similar set-up to that one with the two operating together as one large crossing. Basically something similar to this crossing, once upon a time.
