Mike's Railroad Crossing Forum

At first glance this looks like your typical setup, but upon closer inspection you will notice that one lane has a gated signal yet the other lane has a simpler signal with only flashing lights. no idea why. https://www.google.com/maps/@43.1400419 ... 312!8i6656

I did not even realize there was another crossing, another dumb mistake. I really don't belong on this site, later........

You can stick around! We all make dumb mistakes like this now and then.
