Once we finish switching duties for the day, it's an average 8 mile shove back to a small CSX yard. When there so few cars that the horn blast is loud enough for the en-stein drivers to hear we still go pretty slow over crossings. I'll dang near have my engineer stop when there are so many cars that I can't hear the horn blast. <br /> Any ways, today this brain surgen driving a company truck for a local building supply store goes warp speed over a crossing with crossbucks and stop signs on both sides. I was on the point and about 4 cars away from the crossing. Meanwhile, the engineer is waking up the dead as usual with glass breaking thunderous horn blasts. So there was no denying that were were coming. This mush brain driver never once looked our way or acknowledged the stop sign. <br /> A phone call was made to his boss, who I'm sure will be proud of the highly intelligent driver who doesn't stop at stop signs, and puts my life in danger. Hopefully action will be taken but I doubt it. All I can say is his boss better say something before I do, cause my size 13s are really chattery.
