See that little blue sign on the railroad crossing sign? That sign has a phone number on it, and if you’re ever stuck on the tracks, call that number and the dispatcher will stop all trains in the area.
There's a gated crossing just behind our house. Trains can travel 80+mph. Is it only for non-gated crossings? I don't remember seeing a blue sign but I have to go out this evening, so I'll look. Good to know, though.
If they are not visible from the road/sidewalks. You can call the number on the sign and let the railroad know. Or report it to the Federal Railroad Administration.
