I live near the old D&RGW branch to the Kennecott Copper mine which Utah Railway is currently using to service a few remaining customers on. My question is this. <br /> <br />Starting about 7am we can distictly hear the trains at the grade crossings, however my wife said last night when she was up with the baby about 4am she could hear the engines, but she never heard any honking. So what are the rules at grade crossings? Here in SLC there has been a lot of people whinning about trains near homes (not nessecarily on the branch I live by), and the mayor of SLC has said he wants to make the railroad stop honking and lower the speed limit of the trains. I was under the impression that warning whistles were regulated by the FRA?? <br /> <br />So whats the deal!? [;)]
