Nice video! I'm kind of surprised that this crossing isn't 4 quad gated...

While you were doing a tour of the Kankakee Street grade crossing in Wilmington that car honked his horn after you said pedestrian gates at 1:49

[@jdonw2003]

Denison had that same problem too for Union Pacific

Why do crossings on the up Joliet sub have quad gates

[@GreatMidwesternTrains]

Because of how fast Amtrak is going down the line and now today they moved the sensors more down the line 2 minutes before he reaches the crossing

Hey those older signals there bells died when the gates were completely down do the new ones ring though the whole actvation

I despise quiet zones it's a law I view is unnecessary an unsafe
