Your right!

Wow people are pretty patient over there. I work for light rail and if I have the gates down for more than 45 seconds while working on it, I have everybody honking.

In terre haute people go around gates, when the trqin is right there. This one time I saw someone race a single locomotive.

Thanks. I’ve been busy with family things recently but should have more time now. Ferroequinology is just a hobby, but it’s a hobby I enjoy. Good to know there are people who’ve been watching for a while and are looking forward to new videos. I’ve seen some interesting things recently and I’ll have time to edit them eventually.

I'm surprised they still let trains run through with the gates activating - that must've been annoying!

8:49 looks like there trying to struggle to get the new gate put in

16:01 checking the new gate

Imagine working on the gate in metra rush hour :/

At first I thought it was one of those gates that flips to be bigger

it almost looks like a hinge gate

11:18 new gate is on when train is coming

They really didn't replace the whole gate. They only replaced the broken segment part.

6:14 replacing the gate

That was very interesting. The first 3 trains all sounded their horns for the crossing, but the last one did not. Any idea why?

The horn rules for the Chicago area seem to go something like this: #1: Do not blow the horn at railroad crossings by default (but it’s allowed if there’s a reason) because it annoys nearby residents. The bell should be used instead. #2: If you are passing another train in (or near) a station, blow the horn and slow down to a crawl. People tend to walk across the track without looking, thinking the gates are down for the train they just got off of. Applies only to Metra lines. #3: If anything unusual is happening (track construction for example), repeatedly sound two blasts of the horn until you’ve gone past it. It sounded to me like the engineers of the first few trains were thinking of it as “something on the crossing” and blowing the horn, but the last train (at 19:15) was thinking of it as track construction and following #3 instead. Thanks for pointing this out by the way. It’s a subtle difference I hadn’t noticed.

@@Tolono I don't know how it works in the USA, but in Italy if they are working on the crossings, while rail traffic is active, the trains are notified of that and should by regulations, blow the repaetedly blow the horn to both notify the maintenance services and the road traffic that a train is approaching the crossing. When the crew notifies the traffic regulator (station or control room) that the crossing has been fixed, they no longer notify the train of the malfunction so that no horn blows are necessary. As far as I can see, the first three trains come when the maintenance is still ongoing, while the last one comes when the maintenance has already ended, so maybe that might be another reason.

Wow I did not know that the gate got hit the last time i went to this crossing was a week ago. This is Barrington Rd #2

Interesting to watch

One day i might wanna be railroad crossing fixer also that is a long arm gate

i thought every train has to honk before a crossing but rules may change and vary for each country

That was a Metrolink in the beginning of the video

They really should upgrade that signal mast to a bigger one with more lights. That current one is a little too small but the gate arm is really long. I can see how it got hit.

What are those strobing yellow lights on the crossing for

We saw a broken gate on bnsf railroad I believe it was on December 24th

Old gate being broken kinda looks like a hinged gate

What cantilever is that?
