UP 1466 LRS51 Local Shoving - S Howland Rd. Crossbuck Railroad Crossing, Lathrop CA

November 7, 2023 10:16am
Union Pacific Railroad LRS51 Local freight train shoves off the UP Tracy Sub onto a spur track past the South Howland Road railroad crossing in Lathop, California headed to work Pilkington North America, Ryder/Kraft, & J.R. Simplot in Lathrop, California.
Howland Road was originally 7th Street and use to cut straight through to where I'm standing until the late 1990s when it was curved off to the right to meet at the intersection of Louise Ave and 5th St instead and renamed S Howland Road. It was always a crossbuck crossing.

I think they need to put up some lights on that crossing but why would they say that you was taking pictures
