Ouch!

This is several years old... but I thought worth posting. Check out the crossing signal under the trailer!

From the posts I read under the picture, I believe the trailer got hung up on the crossing. The train crew went into emergency but wasn't able to stop quickly enough.

Actually, real beer drinkers probably would tell you the train did the world a service.
:LOL2:
Although I have to admit, you have to be a beer drinker to truly appreciate that joke as well...

The Gate mech, lights, crossbuck, and bell looks like they could still be used.

I thought the same thing. I tried to go to StreetView to get a current view of the crossing, but that particular section of that street is not available yet. :Sad:
