My family and I enjoyed the railroad museum where that camera is mounted. Unfortunately, trains do not blow for that crossing there so you get no warning of oncoming trains. By the time you realize a train is approaching and you get outside or to a window, the power is by you.

so how do we get at least day time approach warning toots or some other method announcing they are close??? (and yes, I now have posted at ORHC the Coast Starlight's schedule) |
