There are no railway signals at Ottawa.

My description is only for railway signals (bells/lights/arms), not traffic signals.  In urban sections there will be no drama.

The (southbound track) LRT crossing of Ottawa is entirely handled by regular traffic signals? I could have sworn I saw railway crossing lights and arms there. Or are they only for the freight line (which of course will not normally be stopping there at all)?

The locations I gave were the ones I could think of that have a platform followed by a crossing, with the crossing (to my recollection) being guarded by gates.
