I speak my mind, if you don't like that oh well. I'll have you fill out a hurt feelings report and submit that to my office.

I'm with Mike on that one, Canyon should have been left gateless. But owing to the fact that it's a heavily traveled state highway I'm assuming ODOT wanted them there. The two gateless crossings are city streets.

Ten bucks says the first car to get nailed by a WES train occurs here. :Tongue2:
You think your car gets bad mileage? SP 4449 consumes 10 gallons of bunker oil and 100 gallons of water every mile.
