Thank you Russel for your comments. You seem to be very much in tune with the what runs this country. If it wasn't for the trucks and trains it would shutdown. My sincere concern is what is a lack of interest in the railroad to be honest and upfront to people like me and you who assume that everything is being done correctly in regards to crossing safety. I am a relatively poor(read:Child support,HA!HA!) blue collar worker who proudly served in the wonderful USN on a submarine for 6 years. I have been a railfan for as long as I can remember. That is the hardest part of this because I have always been very pro-railroad. I have come across this by being a Juror on a case involving a person who died at a crossing. I am by no means an expert on crossings, but can assure you that I will continue to educate myself on what is an inexcusable act of negligence on the railroads part. I'm not talking about the crazy people in a hurry to get to the mall and cross the tracks knowing there is a train coming. I'm talking about someone who is doing everything they can but is at a distinct disadvantage at an Ultra-hazardous crossing. Most of which could be fixed with some pro-active action on the railroads behalf. Please do me a tremendous favor an goto the following site and consider the full story, not just the railroads side. <br />http://angelsontrack.org <br /> <br />Thank you for your time and May God Truly Bless you and provide with the unbias to at least consider both sides of this incredibly sad story. <br />Mike
