There used to be a similar sign to your creation in Davis where a set of spur tracks crossed 2nd St. Some years ago the area got redeveloped and they removed the spur tracks, so the sign is gone. It didn't have any text, just a bike, the tracks and graphics to indicate that one should take the lane in order to cross them at a right angle. In spite of that, there were a number of folks who managed to take themselves down on the tracks.
