UP WB AutoStack-4th Street(Edwardsville) [Horn Salute]

For my return back to Kansas City, I figured that I’d come out to the Kansas Subdivision since I haven’t been out here before. I wanted to be in or near Bonner Springs so I figured that I’d come out here to 4th street since it looked pretty easy to me. I ended up with this AutoStack with UP 7521 leading with UP 7190 and UP 5300 tailing.
A shoutout to the engineer for a horn salute.

Nice catch! I like how there's median curbs for the road at this crossing.

[@SouthKCRailfan]

There’s a few crossings throughout Kansas City that have them

Who was the former owner of the Kansas Subdivision, did the MoPac install these signals

[@SouthKCRailfan]

Union Pacific is the original owner of the Kansas Sub and therefore they installed these signals

Yo did he give you a horn after he passed?

[@SouthKCRailfan]

@@rack_9 As the train was approaching the grade I wasn’t behind the camera, so they must have seen me where I was.

That crossing sure looks different with the addition of the median, curbs, and the removal of the side street on the other side. I unfortunately got harassed at that crossing on New Year's Eve by some karen who was taking photos of me for no reason. Nice video!
