This happened early this morning at this crossing: https://www.google.com/maps/@28.047573,-81.9448816,3a,75y,191.58h,93.54t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sPgZ31psj2pp1GD9EywSluQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en The truck took out one of the quad gates, and a separate mast/gate on the other side of the tracks... but so...

Found this rather odd 4 way intersection installation in Bradenton, FL. It includes a mast signal for pedestrians, even though the sidewalk runs parallel to the tracks. :Confused: https://www.google.com/maps/@27.4878778,-82.5654173,3a,90y,354.27h,90.13t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s9_s4Film2cl42D3h389uPQ!2e0...

I'm just curious in which crossing in Tampa is the busiest crossing. I mean, the hotel i live in is right next to a crossing, but gets only 2 trains a week as it services a bottling plant, what is the most busiest crossing in the Tampa area? Zach is better qualified to answer this than I am... but ...

Just found out the hotel i'm staying in Tampa next year is next to this crossing, however i'm guessing its just used twice a week by CSX. :OhWell: https://www.google.com/maps/@28.0531149,-82.4262331,3a,51.6y,180.4h,98.81t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sy92amNCUZepQYOY5K5Rquw!2e0!5s20160801T000000!7i13312!8i66...

This was in Georgia... warning, there is some foul language: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xq3pne5kR0 And you can't forget about this one is Salisbury, NC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ub50ai8QAaI This one was also in North Carolina. By some miracle only the gate mast was damaged but the separ...

Interesting set up on this crossing at an intersection in Provo, Utah. I guess if you want to turn right while there is a train you are out of luck. https://www.google.com/maps/@40.2258208,-111.6714515,3a,75y,80.86h,104.92t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s2Ez25lbm3cEQEDAX2U6tLA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en This sig...

Found some remains of an A-frame gate in Benjamin, Utah! https://www.google.com/maps/@40.0853678,-111.7038807,3a,75y,107.84h,94.02t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sJVvskYQuyzJpwe7TragiWA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en Looked a little better in 2007. The other side had a normal gate: https://www.google.com/maps/@40.08...

By plane... about 3 hours. If you drive (which I have done now more than I would like)... it is about 18 hours with just basic stops for restroom breaks and fuel.

RIP these signals! https://www.google.com/maps/@39.7792323,-89.6449024,3a,75y,282.37h,90.77t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sZTPmkOBqUGiK269IkH9fPg!2e0!6s%2F%2Fgeo3.ggpht.com%2Fcbk%3Fpanoid%3DZTPmkOBqUGiK269IkH9fPg%26output%3Dthumbnail%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactile.gps%26thumb%3D2%26w%3D203%26h%3D100%26yaw%3D33...
