Great compilation! Seems like a lot of private crossings have some goodies. But I gotta ask, have you ever been caught? I know you say you "have to look for active security", but was there ever a really inconvenient time for you?
Great video! In my experience, over here on the east coast, private crossings with signals would typically have crossbucks on them. The Private Crossing signs are only used on ones without signals, from what I've seen. CA is a bit different in how they do crossing signage, it seems, so I wouldn't be too surprised to find-out that CA used to require them for all private crossings.
The first locomotive seen is ex-Southern Railroad (bell mounted at long hood end and seats mounted facing away from short hood). Southern Railroad was known for configuring their GP38-2 locomotives to run long hood forward with the reverser in forward, taking inspiration from the old steamers.
Cool video I have filmed one video at the privte crossing near the davis California train station its a little down west between old davis road and the station
Hi MobileRailSpotterRXR, I wanted to know, how do you know what time do the CSX or any other train crosses the road, like when the crossing activates and the train goes by. Please let me know, thanks! Also love your vids, keep up the good work
Thank you! I find out about when trains are coming by listening to them over a scanner and use an Scanner Radio app if the railroads area is available on it. Crossings activate off the train speed so I start recording as soon as I see headlights. When I was in the NC I caught some CSX trains by luck as I didn't know much about the lines and unfamiliar with the area to know exactly where a train was going at the time.
@@MobileRailSpotterRxR cool! Thanks you! I am a big railroad crossing lover. Funny thing is, I live in NC! I am in the wake forest/Youngsville area, and I see the crossing there all the time. Would love to see a train!
Sheesh many crossings are privately owned. But they're still pretty cool. They still function as regular crossings do. Most of them are owned by private companies or railroads.

@@MobileRailSpotterRxR what is the app’s name? Is it called “police scanner and fire” or something?
Wow! I've never seen a type 1 AND a wch at the same crossing!
