Always expect a train when approaching a railroad crossing!
@ckildegaard10 жыл бұрын
My advice: if you are at a railroad crossing, whether any warning devices are present or activated, look each way at least twice BEFORE you begin crossing. Then, continue doing so as you cross. Same as a street, but much, MUCH more dangerous, which is why you should be much more active with your eyes.

There's a railroad track that bisects much of the city where I live. I ride that same Amtrak route several times a year, so I know that a least a dozen Amtrak northbound and southbound pass through there each day, in addition to who knows how many Metrolink trains. Yet I've only had to stop and wait a handful of times, and gates down to gates up takes a couple of minutes at most. Freight train crossings take a lot longer (I'd still wait of course), but a passenger train is so quick that it's never worth the risk. But I should also be slowing and looking both ways at that crossing in my city, even if the lights aren't flashing. There's always that chance of mechanical error.

2:57 personally, being a railfan. I’ve seen cars do this. If you didn’t know, gates go down early, and if it’s going slow, I don’t see an issue crossing. And at 3:08 you’ll hear it. It’s not like they don’t honk. 4:35 I never stand 20 feet, come on i stand at least 10

At my old workplace. The route I took always crossed over a major freight line. Large freight locomotives come through a few times a day, I have seen people sneak through the crossing arms on bike or on foot. Scariest part being the train is coming at full speed, horn blasting and there being only a few car lengths away by the time the people get across the tracks.... One day in a matter of time, I might very well witness a person get slaughtered by a big freight train all simply because they are impatient..

I smashed coins on the tracks all the time as a kid. The only thing you need to know is not to be stupid around trains. Today's train safety is gotten way out of control. Everyone needs to relax. Chill. Trains only kill stupid people. When my kids were young I let them go onto the tracks to smash quarters. Today one is a Marine. The other is a Flight Surgeon.

though, sometimes the gates and lights malfunction, I was at one once for 5 minutes with it down and no train came.......so I looked both ways, went around the gates and was fine, it now has a sign to report that if it happens.

I remember once I was filming some train videos at a crossing because where I was, trains went by like every 20 minutes. Then I noticed something out of the corner of my eye and went to investigate. As I got closer, i noticed it was a cross with someone's picture on it. I'm not going to reveal the name, but it was right next to the track so they probably got killed by a train. R.I.P. whoever it was.

If trains could swerve to avoid cars they call them Derailments, also if you get a crush injury between train and rails, the shock and trauma will kill you before you'd ever bleed to death. the bit with the can is not accurate. It amazes me that a lot of this simple knowledge is required to be known before one can be granted a basic driver's license yet they forget after the license is granted.

It's pretty stupid how narrators say, "A train traveling at 55 mph will take 18 football fields to come to a complete stop." That's 2,160 yards. I believe a train [100 cars fully loaded] at grade level, with dynamic braking can slow and reach a full stop in under 1,300 yards.

@usnva56387 жыл бұрын
I'm not asking, I'm telling!!! I once followed parallel along Savage Rd in Churchville, NY a CSX freight running eastbound and matched its speed at 58 mph. Well before it reached Savage Rd 1 mile away it was already using dynamic braking and crawled to less than a 20 mph speed. This was on level grade. You can think all life long what you want, what CNN feeds you or whatever, but I know what I saw and I know what I'm talking about!

@terjen555 жыл бұрын
USNVA...there are no many variables when it comes to how far it takes a train to stop. Number of cars, loaded or unloaded, grade of track, number of engines, when the engineer puts the train in emergency stop, etc. What they are trying to say, it can take up to a mile for a train to stop at 55mph. Don't over think it, just be aware that trains can't stop quickly.

*STUPID VIDEO* "Two sets of tracks." Laughable. Means two tracks. If the gates start to go up, there is nother train immediately approaching. Otherwise the gates would stay down. Slowhen you see the advance *(RXR)* ? Nope. Just be prepared to slow and stop if necessary. They show a private grade crossing as an example. In many places, no horn isounded for private crossings. Should have been more emphasis on getting trapped on crossings byehicles ahead stopping just as you are beginning to cross.
