Not that I condone this type of behavior... nor would I ever do it... but is what they did possible? All you need is a pair of jumper cables?
Re: Can someone explain this??
Yep, that's all you need. Any piece of metal that will connect the rails together is called a "shunt". Of course...it's a federal offense...so I don't ever try it.cabman701 wrote:Not that I condone this type of behavior... nor would I ever do it... but is what they did possible?

Re: Can someone explain this??
anyone notice the cop car that went by when it showed the crossing overview when the gates were fully in the vertical position??? I thought that cop would pull over to see what they were doing...

Yeah... I saw the cop car too. I'm sure if anything he thought it was just a malfunction... not somebody being mischievous.
I'm sure those kids were crapping their pants though when they saw him!

I speak my mind, if you don't like that oh well. I'll have you fill out a hurt feelings report and submit that to my office.
