Amtrak 21 rolls past a grade crossing that has gates on each side of the road and tracks that protect all parts of the road so that no car can go around the gate. The train has 125-82 for power and has 2 unique cars on the rear.

  • thank you for answering that Question for me. They've been through a lot of CEO's haven't they?

  • Thats Joseph Boardman's car!!!

  • to keep people from beating the train

  • I've never seen any freight trains on that line, only Amtrak trains, although UP does own the line. The quad-gate setups are nice.

  • i saw these's crossings on my way to chicago and though what the hell are quad gates doing there in the middle of nowhere
