Have you ever reported an emergency on the railroad? I got to call BNSF last Friday night; a crossing was flashing and there were no trains around for miles on the branchline. I went home and first tried to call the 800 number to Glendive, MT (50 miles south) but that was only for ordering cars and tracking them. So I drove down to the railroad and got the Emergency number off of the crossing (I already had the DOT # for the malfunctioning crossing). I called the railroad and option 2 on their recording was the one I needed. They thanked me for calling and were sending someone out to fix it. That's the first time I got to talk to Fort Worth, TX! I then looked at my RR Police Phone #'s sheet that I carry in my wallet and car and it was the number I just called.[8D] <br /> <br />I recommend that you find the emergency numbers for the major class 1 railroads like I have and type them on a sheet of paper.
