Was that a malfunctioning crossing, though? Still, I know it's illegal to lift gates like that even in the incident of a malfunction.TrickyMario7654 wrote:While not a broken gate, here's a video on someone who lifted a gate at a crossing in Glenroy, allowing cars to go through while the crossing was active.
The gates apparently tend to get stuck down at Glenroy for some reason. A similar thing happens at McGregor Road when both platforms are occupied at the station and a third train is coming, it has to wait for one of the trains at the station to leave before it can enter...ZachL wrote:Was that a malfunctioning crossing, though?

Also, haha at the lady that said "the lights...they're not in sync"
That is why the lights stay on when the gates rise.freebrickproductions wrote:Here's a crossing gate getting torn off by a truck due to a tail-ring malfunction:
Well yeah, but good luck trying to convey that message across to the 99% of motorists that proceed when the gates rise.ToledoRailfan wrote:That is why the lights stay on when the gates rise.freebrickproductions wrote:Here's a crossing gate getting torn off by a truck due to a tail-ring malfunction:
