ITS BEEN SAID TIME AND TIME AGAIN
SPRINGs/GATE KEEPERS ARE CRAP
theirs the proof buss didnt hit the gate hard at all in fact i was at a xing to day someone saw the lights come on and hit the gas had to be going 70+ in a 45 when they hit the xing if they hit the gate (thank god they weren't close to hitting it because i was standing behind it) it probably would have hit me

WHAT A FRIGGIN IDIOT,
yah those springs work sometimes, too bad the gate light didnt stay on the gate.
Did you get any pictures of the aftermath and called bnsf to fix the light, im sure that truck left a few marks on the end of the gate
