Eastern Railroad Discussion > Allentown and Auburn Easter Special

I grabbed a pair of videos of the 2PM Easter Bunny special heading east out of Kutztown, PA today.

First up is the A&A 206 rolling across the Kohler Rd crossing on the outskirts of Kutztown.

One more to follow.......

Nice videos, and I'm just glad that there was no traffic coming just as the train got to the crossing, as in this day and age, too many drivers pay no attention to railroad crossings, especially the ones that have no lights and/or gates.

Two nice videos on a beautiful day, Dan. Thanks for sharing them..
Not exactly a close call, I guess, but this twit didn't even slow down for a railroad crossing protected only by a crossbuck. That would've turned into a very bad day for him had he been seconds later reaching the crossing.

Unfortunately most people don’t slow down for that crossing.
