Those two cars didn't even stop 1:03 just as the train already passed through that car started to turn around, really?
@TaorakisКүн бұрын
Where do you even get the idea from that red blinking lights, closed gates and a train honking closeby means "I can still make it and save 3 minutes"? :/ Ohh also a BIG Sign that says "Do not cross when gates are down"...

Why not film the other side for once? I want to hear those crossing signals too.
@FreedomtowerStudios4 сағат бұрын
I've thought about it several times, but its not the safest spot to stand, plus i would be looking INTO the sun and that would cause massive back light. I'll look into it though

It’s odd… but at that same time more useful than a standard doghouse, which in nj can just be replaced by those other ones that act similar to this one, ability without the red light.

Those are the one that have been "retired" from revenue service and been put into freight duty. Usually this is done when a locomotive is about to be retired for good but they still need power
