Reply to "afterthought grade crossings"

I'm not much for planning or thinking ahead so I find I need some grade crossings after all the track is ballasted. Roads outside the city will be dirt or tar and chip and that's where all the grade crossings will be. If you have suggestions or can post pics of your non wooden/non concrete crossings Id like to see them.

Thanks

Why "non wooden"? Even unpaved roads, "back in the day" still had wood planks on either side of the rails, in order to keep the dirt/gravel/stone in place. As the photos posted above show, the wood crossings are the absolute best way to go.
