Much of the world has similar, but distinctively different, signs for road crossings. So, I want to build a collection of them.
I currently have the following taken by myself:
France + France (2),
Hungary + Hungary (2) + Hungary (3),
Kosovo + Kosovo (2),
Plus some unofficial variations:
I also know of the following others on Flickr:
Help me find a complete set. Please comment or message me if you know of others!
Well, I'm not crossing over the railway line from this point as that would be more than dangerous! Just looking along the railway line towards Prestwick Railway Station and the pedestrian crossing!

Crossing Mnisose (“minne-show-she”) tells the story of one of America's first feminists, Sacajawea, and draws a line from a completely original view of Lewis and Clark to the present day, as descendants of the Dakota and Lakota Nations continue their fight for the Mnisose (or what Europeans named the “Missouri River”) and the lands that contain the burials of their ancestors. From celebrated playwright, activist, and attorney Mary Kathryn Nagle (Cherokee Nation), whose Manahatta captivated audiences at Oregon Shakespeare Festival.

A freight train crossing the Bidassoa river on it’s way from Irún to Hendaye. Although I was standing in Spain when taking this photo, the locomotives are already in France.
Crossing the Line - From USS Midway CV-41 1979 Cruise Book, This is what happens when you cross the
equator and go from being a lowly polywog to becoming a Shellback.
Great to see proper old gates at the Godnow Crossing, near Crowle. 185135 approaches at speed heading towards Doncaster, Wednesday 29.1.14
The nice policeman will stop all the traffic whilst you cross the road.
It might help if you look where you are going rather than at the man taking your photograph.

For most of the time in the children's home there was not a policeman around to help us cross the road, to get to the sweet shop, having a busy 'A' road there was a zebra crossing that most of us used. Often a Sister or older child would escort the younger group across, most of the time the cars did stop for us.
Once you were about eight you were thought old enough to go to school on your own or with others of your own age, no police or adults to look after you, most of us survived the mile or so walk without any problems.
In rural areas, cows take precedence over people. The cars will just have to wait as a dairy herd heads to the barn (with little human guidance).
Seen approaching one of the many level crossings North of Cheltenham, 47805 is making light work of a light load. 2 Mk2 coaches is hardly strenuous work for a Duff!
I think these two coaches have just been refurbed down at Easteigh and are heading North for the future Carlisle to Sellafield.
Flipping winter weather makes for a horrid shot :(
A zebra crossing is a type of pedestrian crossing used in many places around the world. Its distinguishing feature is alternating dark and light stripes on the road surface, from which it derives its name. A zebra crossing typically gives extra rights of way to pedestrians and not actual Zebras.
Restored to its former glory complete with the usual selection of enamel signs. This little signal cabin if I have my facts right once stood in Gloucester Horton Road Depot Yard and went by the name of 'Mileage Yard Signal Box'. It has been brought here to the DFR and restored as a crossing box beside Norchard Low Level station.

I have been a bit busy lately, didn't had much time for pictures but I am catching up, some new textures in making also:-))
Basin Road crossing as seen from the footbridge next to Stockbridge Road. Part of the Brighton to Portsmouth line (LBSCR), the gates near Chichester station always seem to decend very early causing large traffic and pedestrian queues.

Crossing 2000ft below heading west at FL360 over northern France. Due to it's distance it overstretched my camera's capabilities a bit. I decided to upload because it's a nice looking aircraft.
Disused border crossing from Chałupki (PL) - to Bohumín (CZ). In January 2007 motorized traffic was diverted to a new bridge a few hundred meters west. On 21 December 2007 the control booths were left by border guards under the Schengen Agreement, allowing for free passage (at this location pedestrians and cyclists only).
This is the third crossing of the day so far. The second actually had a bridge thankfully! We had two more stream crossings with one of those having a bridge too. So that makes five crossings for the day including three wet crossings!
I was a lot more comfortable with this one even though it was a long way. We went across another log to an island in the stream, then took this log that mostly went upstream, then crossed in knee deep water the rest of the way. The flip flops worked much better than barefoot in the water, but I'd definitely keep the boots on next time.
Notice the tent is about to fall out. Thank goodness it didn't!
A BRIDGE CROSSING
@ THE FESTIVAL GARDENS
In 1984, a former household tip site adjacent to the River Mersey was transformed into the country’s first ever garden festival. The International Garden Festival was a concept born from the Conservative government to regenerate Liverpool and drive tourism to the city in the wake of the Toxteth riots and industrial decline. A five month pageant from May to October, the International Garden Festival attracted some 3.4 million visitors with its mix of 60 ornamental gardens from all parts of the world and the centrepiece Festival Hall which contained various floral displays. When the festival closed its doors, a large part of the site was developed into residential housing, while the remainder experienced various incarnations as leisure and entertainment facilities, until it was left derelict in 1997 to fall into disrepair. In 2007, Liverpool City Council granted Langtree planning permission to develop a residential-led regeneration scheme of the festival gardens which included the restoration of the formal gardens and the development of 1,300 homes. This new dawn for the Festival Gardens has been a long time coming and represents a unique opportunity to create a public park which is befitting the spirit of the Garden Festival movement. The redevelopment work began in February 2010 and will see the Japanese gardens, sculptures, lakes and associated watercourses restored ahead of its re-opening. The Festival Gardens project is being managed by The Land Trust on behalf of the land owner Langtree and Liverpool City Council thanks to a grant of £3.7m from the Northwest Regional Development Agency (NWDA). This work is the first step in the regeneration of the site which will ultimately see new residential development sitting alongside the newly opened park.The site is situated on Riverside Drive, Liverpool.
LIVERPOOL JUNE 2012
Progress of works in February 2014 for the removal of the level crossing at Springvale. The bridge deck is complete and the new depressed line is being excavated and the new station is under construction, immediately to the north of the old one.
Works are to be completed during 2014.
