I have much respect for trains. Just stand next one while it's idling. The ground will shake.

At this point in time all the railroad crossings needs to be eliminated. Before the train gets an area where there’s a road, they should have a tunnel so the train can go underneath the road or make a bridge that goes over it. It will actually save millions of dollars in the long run from all these stupid idiots trying to pass the train.

this wasn't a crossing accident. this was further down the tracks there was a utility truck Who parked too close to the tracks while he was doing something

They are trying to do that but your idea is too expensive or the politicians wouldn't have the balls to commit to such an infrastructure project.
