I know nothing about the regulated speed of a railway crossing gate.....but I certainly noticed that the locomotive (@ 3:47+-) is almost completely through the intersection of this road, before the crossing gate, closest to the camera, reaches its maximum and relaxed downward swing. I would think they'd come down sooner....Other than that scary scenario......GREAT VIDEO!! :) luv em :) .

Saw that SAME geometry train going through Decatur on the Peoria sub... it then had permission to go on the "Gilman" Sub (you might know what it is) and that's the last I heard of it.
