I have a video of the Queensbury Dr. crossing today. Hopefully it is less shaky than the other video of it.

I do have pictures of the signals in action, I will post them later though.
Edit: Here is a picture of one of the signals in action, I had another picture of the other signal but it didn't turn out as good.

The train for the guy in the car next to me because he asked "Train coming?". I guess that some *cough* almost none *cough* of the Huntsville drivers pay attention to the crossing signals.

And thats why when you work for a railroad you just let them drive out and get hit by the train.
It's called thinning the herd or natural selection.

Or chlorinating the gene pool.

Maybe how people drive around here in Huntsville is why NS put gates at all of there crossings except two.
