I thought there was supposed to be 35 railroad crossings around Reno. There were only about 15-20. Most crossings are overpasses, which made me a little unhappy about Reno. There's less than 5 crossing now I think.
The three original crossings seen on this page are defunct due to a track construction project in 2005 to put the tracks underground (similar to the Alameda Corridor project in California) in the downtown area of Reno. Outside of Reno, crossings still exist though.
Update note from freebrickproductions: I found way more than 5 crossings in Reno when I was there in 2018.
There were 6 signalized ones along the UP Roseville Sub still, along with another 20 on the Reno and Leareno Industrial Leads, making for a good 26 crossings in total remaining in Reno. Guessing that Mike never bothered to check out any of these crossings when he visited back in 2001.
Kinda surprised too, as a good number of the crossings along the Reno and Leareno Industrial Leads are gateless, which I know Mike quite liked.

I [Mike H.] did not see any trains while I was here in Reno on September 3, 2001 for the 3 hours I was there.
