Oh Waba***hat was so crafty. Then there is the old you gotta pay the cost to be the boss. <br /> <br />...The view of the track was not obstructed...on EVERY report yet the locals are saying the view is obstructed. Somebody is fibbing in Texas. I really can't tell where all these collisions are reported in here can you. The public crossings listed are actually private in the FRA data so the crossing was sight obstructed and no blown whistle. The crossing have gates on one collision and then six months later the gates have turned into cross-bucks. Of course none of the FRA 400 inspectors even bother to go out so they can play dumb. <br /> <br />=====Accident 1 ===== RR report GC0100202 ===== Crossing ID 024349R ===== On Jan 17, 2000 a FREIGHT TRAIN operated by Burlington Northern Santa Fe Corp.
