The road sign in advance of an open crossing on Irish Rail is still a yellow diamond with a single track railway superimposed on a black X. The red triangle with a steam loco is used as part of the crossing signage addressed at road users rather than normal road signage (if you get the distinction?)

The only remaining “lights and bells” crossing is as far as I know Wexford Quays. It’s marked by having red wigwags with no amber road light as they were never provided for with lights and bells crossings.
The whole setup is well worth a look on Street View for those who aren't familiar with it.

It could refer to the quayside tramway, which terminates on the footway at the other side of the bridge and rematerialises in the middle of the roundabout?

There is a side on pictogram on the quayside sign with the car heading for the drink. As to make and model what springs to mind is the Austin A40 Farina.
I have always thought that the front view pictogram looks like a Ford Anglia 100E with its three barred grille.
