    I remember this crossing having incandescent lights when you filmed an Amtrak going through it about a decade ago, lol And I also have a crossing near me with double stacked lights that’s on a CSX shoreline, as well !

    It's for sight distance, when you come over the hill, you can see the lights flashing before you see the train, because the lights are taller than the box cars.

    I think it's 40 mph here usually. Going north, they're usually doing about 20, or 25 because There is a Very big hill trains have to come up going north.
