I believe that in this case the motor inside the gearbox has failed (bad windings or short circuit). The reason because the gate drops so violently is because the closing procedures call for 3 steps: in the first one the hold-clear device is no longer fed with current, so it is able to release the gate, in the second one the gate drops by gravity and in the last one, approx. after 45° the motor helps the gate to soft-land into 90° position by acting as an engine-brake. When the "up" command is received, the motor is powered up, the gate begins to rise and, when in 0° position the hold-clear device is fed again with current and the motor is disconnected, keeping the gates in the resting position as a new cycle takes over. There is another video on youtube showing approximately the same thing where the only differences are the gate impact on concrete, and the fact that the gates rise normally at the end of the cycle. In this case, since the gates just drop, but don't move anymore, I suspect the motor is no longer operative and needs replacement.
Visually it looks like the normally functioning gate never free-falls, so I think these gates are being slowed with dynamic braking by the motor the entire time (or at least it kicks on at an early angle like 70 degrees).
@@kdmq they are and your supposition about the motor kicking on at an early angle is correct. But the broken gate here has a faulty motor with shorted or bad windings or at least there is some kind of interruption in the circuit that never feeds current to the motor so that when the hold-clear device is de-energised effectively unlocking the gate, the engine is not acting as a break and the whole gate smashes into the ground, because it goes down only by gravity. And when the train has gone, the faulty engine/circuit is unable to lift the gate, that stays permanently horizontal.
And the guy that just went over the tracks got lucky. A second or so earlier, and he would have wiped that gate out, along with a scratch or two on his car, for sure!
Hello! I work for CSX, as this comment maybe funny, it clearly isn’t, it’s just in bad shape the whole clearance needs a tune up, hopefully this comment helped!
@@Hayden_the_Derg you don't work for csx. You know why? You said csx will fix it. Lies. Only union pacific can since they own the tracks going through that town. So yeah you caught yourself in a lie 😂
@@BunnyCatV1 Could be, but those motors are heavy components. I more suspect the contacts that suppose to brake the gate's descent are open while they should have been closed.

@@weeardguy I was watching the third train passing by slowly at first and saw the defective arm going back up by itself, but when it came down, it dropped rapidly and smashed hard into the pavement. I'm surprised it didn't break part of the arm off.
Wonder what caused that gate to come crashing like That? I'm just glad nobody was parked underneath that gate when it came down. I'm sure that would leave a big damage. Also rip wch mechanical bell. Sounds like it's about dead
I've heard what causes gates to slam like that is a bad gate mech. Those make the gate go up or down more safely. My guess is either that or the gates just sick of going up and down so much so it's like "ugghh FINE."
In this case the motor in the mechanism has failed (bad winding or short Circuit or limit switch failures) that will release the gate in 3 seconds the gate that’s why it keeps dropping and hits the ground so it’s need repairing
By design, these gates are supposed to catch people's attention by flailing the arms about. And if your paying attention, they will for sure know that it is an attention grabber when it gets called in and videos are made about it. It's foolproof! XD
That gate's just decided it ain't gonna take s**t from anybody no more. 😁 I presume you called the railroad phone number on the little blue sign to report the malfunction and that's why the train at 8:10 reduced speed to a crawl?
No Way It Should Go Down Normally. It Should Go Down Gently. I've Never Seen A Gate Go Down Like That Before. I Mean Like It Should Go Down Just Normal. How Did It Do That It's Been Down For Hours ! ! !
4:09 if you knew it was gonna do it again why didn’t you keep your camera pointed at it? Why did you pan over to the train right when it was about to do it?

🎵Now from the top, make it drop…🎵
I think it is a broken limit switch on the bottom that tells it to stop the motor when it is down.
You are incorrect.
How the heck did the crossing turn off.
The train tracks guards can be broken if you drive through them. It will damage your car but better than totaling it.
When the WCH 3590 takes steroids
Good video!
In Russia, this is considered quite normal.
Bad Gate mechanism screaming out means that something inside the mechanism itself has gone bad wondering if they have replaced it yet
Yeah I think so too

Probably a dirty gate motor armature or contacts need adjustment.

CSX doesn't have jurisdiction of this Crossing. It also has been fixed already.
This line isn’t even owned by CSX
Also you can get in legal trouble impersonating a csx worker. So good luck in jail if they ever catch you.
And whoever is thumbing up the faker my message to you is that you are gullible.
Also to the brainless people who gave the impersonator 4 likes I have three words for you: *SHAME ON YOU!!!*

why is one of the gate lights at the end of it hanging off
Bad gate mechanism will cause it to drop fast and raise slowly equal bad gate mechanism
Busy crossing! Looks like they got their crossing protection order in, though.
Does that boom gate at the start have a snub or not?
That gate must be drunk
Gate hit the ground like spring.
The gate light broke and it’s on the ground. Someone should fix that gate light
Actually the moving up and down makes a better presentation lol.

it was having a tatrum
