That crossing gate is either real slow in getting down into position or it's stuck there. Bet the train was just gettin started and gate had not come completely down yet. Nice shot. Ben

Kind of reminds me of the cheap old model train crossing gates that dropped when the weight of the train was applied meaning the gate slammed down at about the same point we see in this photo.
