Railroad Crossing Nightmares Solved! A Must See Solution! Fast Trains & Level Railway Crossings!

Railroad Crossings Being Blocked By Norfolk Southern Railroad Trains In Seven Mile, Ohio Have Been A Problem For Years. Trains Block Several RR Crossings Which Prevents People From Getting Out Of A Big Residential Area. Video Also Includes CSX Trains & Norfolk Southern Trains In Nearby Hamilton, Ohio. First Train Features Union Pacific Railroad Locomotives.
The railroad crossing issue has been on television for years. I have gone to Seven Mile a dozen times or more trying to figure out the problem. Trains stop sometimes and block the only roads in and out of a large residential area. Trains have gotten longer over the past few years and some of them are over 2 and a half miles long! I have filmed them. 3 roads are blocked several times a year. The roads are Fear Not Mills Road, Spring Road and West Elkton Road. When these roads are blocked there is no way out. A solution was found and will be in place by 2026. A bypass road will be built from West Elkton Road to West Taylor School Road. The road will be almost 3,000 feet long and will run parallel to the railroad tracks. The Ohio Rail Development Commission will kick in 2.8 million dollars for the project which will cost approximately 3 million dollars. The crossing at West Elkton Road will be closed. This will give the residents a way out when trains stop near town.
We also see a brand new defect detector that was installed in Seven Mile next to West Elkton Road. The first train in this video is flying past the West Elkton Road crossing. This is an intermodal train with Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern locomotives. Then we see a train at the other end of the project. After that we go to nearby Hamilton Ohio to see three more trains in town at various railroad crossings. The Norfolk Southern trains in this video tie into the CSX line in New Miami, just north of Hamilton and share the CSX line for a short distance.
ERMS rail is Evraz Rocky Mountain Steel which is a steel mill in Pueblo, Colorado. Now you know.
Don't miss the Live Action Pets and the slide show that comes from this video. It was another rainy day in Ohio.

Glad that they are addressing the problem. Where I live in WV, our main route (2) is cut off several times a day. Sometimes for more than 30 minutes. There has actually been a fatality because of the ambulance being stuck. It would be nice if CSX and the state would take an interest in finding a solution to this problem.

[@jonwatt678]

Hey Brian. The spur that cuts off to the west by the old train station in Hamilton crosses the Great Miami river. Where it lands on the other side is a really cool looking stone arched trestle. I think it would be a great spot to grab a video if there's enough trains going that way. Also the neighborhood looks a bit sketchy but I'll let you be the judge... Have a great Sunday. 🙏

[@JawTooth]

I have filmed on that side but not the stone trestle. I filmed the very west end of it where an abandoned road goes over it. I will film it soon though

[@crlaw75]

I've lived in areas where trains blocking traffic had been an issue for years. The town of Stockbridge, GA took matters in hand several decades back, and built an overpass road in the middle of town so the cars could drive over the tracks. I lived there before that was done, so there were days when you sat for nearly half hour waiting on a train to move. Great video JT!! Like how you say where certain cars are coming from and heading to. Appreciate the miles traveled to bring us the rails! Until next time!!

Given how long it was and how I didn't see a lot of empties on it, I'm a little surprised that the long CSX mixed freight starting at 17:30 didn't have a DPU tacked in somewhere. It still amazes me how much tonnage a locomotive can handle, and I'm old enough to have watched an GP-7 or GP-9 handle100 or more cars out on the road all by itself.

Great report on bypass road, but sure is a long time to wait for the solution. So, four trains in this very fine video, some quite long, and not a single DPU! Isn't that unusual for these main line consists? First train, you figure 50MPH, or faster? Where is your speed gun, JT? What does that road sign "NO ENGINE BRAKE" mean? How is that different from plain old stopping? First one of those I've seen. I've seen previous videos you've shot from that location at 17:00 - I recognize that 4-storey grey building - it must have been a marvel when it was fully operational. Looks like it might have been it a hotel? Stay well and keep these fine videos coming our way.
