Due to the CMC Steel plant here, I do not recommend trying to record this crossing.

In fact, you can see all of these pictures were taken from inside my car, as I didn't want to have to deal with the security here.

As such, I suggest y'all just skip this crossing, and go to one of the nearby crossings instead to watch trains at.

 

All pictures were taken on 3-18-20.
