Man... Love the videos. Do you know is WSOR still runs from janesville out to monroe, wi still today? I was out in Juda today getting photos of the depot. I'd LOVE to see the train still using that line past a great old depot like juda's. I didn't get to the Monroe Depot, so thats for my next excursion.
nice horn Type P3 Whats with the huge crossing gates when the trains are only going 20 to 25 those should be used on the Joliet to St Louis Line for Amtraks going 110 Mph not 20 to 25, seems like a waist of money
In 1st scene, why couldn't those 2 cars waited for 2 engines! If the lights are flashing, the road is closed! On the last scene, the crew should have waited 17 seconds after the gates lowered to cross the road (NTSB rule)
Cool! Excellent shots. It's rare for there to be no inbound cars for Monroe, isn't it? I wonder if that was somehow related to the decision for the early call time.
what in the world is that type of crossing at 1:37?

Those two guys at the beginning of the video got some IQ. This is a classic example of what never to do at an RR crossing.

Yeah its sad the barriers didnt get down in time during the second time it crossed!
DRock1694 3 years ago
well they would have, but they started from a stop and were probably 15 yards from the crossing when they started.
