Maybe it's like double secret probation in the movie Animal House. Or perhaps, there's some kind of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" clause like the Military has. You know... you don't ask what the crossing information is to inform us... so we won't tell you and you and everyone can just guess how to alert the railroad when something happens.

if you get stuck on an ns xing and get hit its your own damn fault they have about 50 dot tags all over the place
but heres how lovely csx tells us they dont want us to call them



also in case you wounder we still have some activation failures guess all xings need this sign

Love the name on that sign in the background.

Very nice! Now all it needs is a GS Type 2 Loud Version there, and I'll love it even more...haha!

I know y'all ain't gonna like that, but I think the loud GS Type 2's sound great.

In fact, I just ordered 10 of them this week.
