Interesting how this crossing hasn't been blue-tagged yet!

Re: Front St., Monroe Michigan.
I went back to this crossing back in January and it has blue tags now. The GRS-WRRS gate mechanism has been replace by a Safetran one. Despite those changes the Nazi graffiti is still on the other gate mechanism.ZachL wrote:Interesting how this crossing hasn't been blue-tagged yet!

Not really that long ago! Its page hasn't been updated yet. Not your fault for not knowing! Re: Front St., Monroe Michigan.
I do know though that the blue DOT tags started popping up on CSX crossings in the Tampa area around 2013, so it was definitely a gradual transition.

They were supposed to be done by September of 2015, according to the people at the HMCR, IIRC. However, a few white ones still remain in service even after then!ZachL wrote:I do know though that the blue DOT tags started popping up on CSX crossings in the Tampa area around 2013, so it was definitely a gradual transition.
They/Them for me, please.

Are the blue DOT tags a federal mandate for all railroads?freebrickproductions wrote:They were supposed to be done by September of 2015, according to the people at the HMCR, IIRC.

Re: Front St., Monroe Michigan.
I think so as they've been appearing on numerous rail-lines in the country. Although some CSX and BNSF lins in Canada have them strangely enough but without a crossing ID.ZachL wrote:Are the blue DOT tags a federal mandate for all railroads?freebrickproductions wrote:They were supposed to be done by September of 2015, according to the people at the HMCR, IIRC.

Canada is an entirely different system in regards to railroading.ToledoRailfan wrote:I think so as they've been appearing on numerous rail-lines in the country.

I'm asking mainly because the SunRail DOT tags in Florida are all original white CSX tags but with the logo taped over.
