Awesome catch as always Owensri2. beautiful pair of Norfolk Southern EMD SD series locomotives...I want to say SD70M-2's, but am not entirely sure. The flasher relays on the mast closest to you are damn near shot, hopefully they have been repaired since this video was shot.

TRAIN!!!!!!

Is there restrictions on the horns during the night?
-
Americans like a good show.
There is no need to sound horns when approaching level crossings with signals or signals with gates.
When the horn is first sounded, the locomotive bell automatically starts ringing and the lighted ditch lights start wigwagging (flashing alternately).
Some crossings can be designated "Quiet Zones" if they have gates blocking all lanes of a road in both directions.

Oh yes I seen a couple examples in Finland - good idea especially in areas where power supplies isn't reliable.
-
There are a couple of videos of British type rail crossings on youtube.
About the preemption amber light - well unlike American trains who would use their horns to alert road users that a train is about to cross, ours don't usually use horns when they are above to cross.
hahahaha mark looks cool? wow
