Mike, You keep pointing out that the RR's can do something to the crossings, as pointed out countless times, It's not there's to mess with! the city owns it! any thing to do with it has to be taken up with the city. I can't come to your house and steal your front door, can I? so why would the RR be able to tamper with the cities crossing?? Also, Please instead of pointing out that web site you keep pointing out, Point out some valid changes that could be made, Explain to us how the crossings could be safer, what the RR can do. Do you want trains to slow to 15mph to go cross crossings? it don't matter! it's unsafe at any speed!! the train WILL go thru the crossing, it's upto the city to protect the crossing! You claim operation lifesaver is a joke, Well guess again, my friend, you think the railroads do it to make money? OL makes no money! it's to tell the public the dangers of action stupid at crossings!, Also explain how Stop Look and Listen don't work? I'd like to know, Safety first & commen sense is all it takes, and sure there's unavoidable accidents, car stalls on tracks, etc. Buy again, how is it the rr's fault??? is it up to them to make sure your cars up to par, or make sure you know how to drive a stick shift with out stalling? I don't get it Mike, Call me stupid or something, I don't see how it's the RR's fault, And I have sat and watched RR crossings on one of the most active tracks on the east coast, the CSX riverline, People are stupid, they try anything to get past a crossing, It's down for a reason! tell'em mike! tell'em! they dont know! oh wait.. That's Operation lifesavers job, whice you say is a fake. please mike, clarify here, I'll wait for your response. Thank you. <br /> <br />And for the record, I am currently not emplyed by any RR, I'm a stupid high school drop out ( I can't be that dumb, I know enough to stop at crossings), living at home, that like's RR stuff. have a great day
