Thank you for watching Bazis 98, yup I guess they couldn't see the train. That's the issue a 50 mph road and everyone thinks me first, this is just a stupid little train ohh wait I'm about to plow into it dam I gotta lock my brakes.. Everyone is in too much of a hurrry these flashers were already active for a while too.
Thank you for watching Break-Van-Man, greetings from the Black River & Western.. Yup another one that either had to try to beat the train or simply not paying attention to the road thinking there is no such thing as a train is going to cross here.
Thank you for watching Dante I know you are a crossing person and at 3:15 that car almost had a bad day. Really gates would be good there or grade separate if possible.
Awesome video Adam! I liked the car locking up the brakes around the 3 minute mark, lol! Also liked the guy that said "yolo" and drove through Toad Lane, lol!
Thank you very much Mike, yup those are Western New Jersey drivers who think there time is better not spent at the railroad crossing waiting for the train.
At 3:17 I want to know what the guy in the black car doing that he did not hear the horn, bells, or see the flashing lights and oh yeah the Green locomotive. LOL
If it wasn't a huge locomotive, it would have been a school bus, pedestrians, or another car stopped in front of him going too fast / not paying attention..
Thank you very much Richard greetings from the Black River & Western Railroad. Yeah not paying attention, same people driving who are in a hurry / don't pay attention they fail to stop or slow down for pedestrians, stop signs, traffic lights, traffic cops, construction zones, school buses, ice cream trucks etc.. With that being said why stop for railroad crossings after all the train should yield to the driver, this just seems like how it is now, seems. Everyone is in a hurry they can't wait. In the beginning of the video while the flashers were active there was a lady beeping at someone who was in front of her at the crossing I guess she wanted them to go through the crossing so she can go through / not wait for the train.
Thank you very much Nate those are older versions of crossing active lights for the train crew.. To alert the crew the crossing is function since they can't see the flashers blinking. Newer crossings especially on the Class 1 railroads they have tiny holes on the sides of the flasher fixtures which those alert the crew / engineer that the crossing is working.
I guess he never saw the train or the lights or heard the horn or the bells... I actually have another video of just the almost incident.. bit.ly/2f1Es5j
Thank you for watching Thomas yup absolutely that's what is great about the area you can hear it coming, no other highways or industry nearby to drown out the noise of #60. BTW sorry for the late response sometimes notifications don't come through.
ohh yeah that's another set of drivers, lol.. That's Route 12 / Parker Ave an extremely busy road and I think the speed limit way too fast for that area. The state I guess still sees no problem with that crossing but for these excursion trains I think that crossing should be turned into an overpass. Take a look at this video I filmed from last year's triple header excursion: bit.ly/2f1Es5j This road in part thanks to incompetent drivers is just a miracle there hasn't been a major train and car accident by now. The regular or normal excursion trains Black River typically does the crossing doesn't stay active the whole time usually. For these extra long consists the crossing stayed active for about 25min really confusing people.. Really the crossing should have been turned off or deactivated and flagged instead my opinion.. If the state can't install an overpass here then another solution should be move the run around track "passing siding" a few more yards further away from route 12 crossing, something should be done before something happens and claim it's the railroad's fault..
3:18 Holy shit that Accord came smoking in 😂

“Hey look a train” sudden realization “OH SHIT A TRAIN”
I was about to comment that 😂😂😂😂
Awesome Video
Thank you for watching Fullerton BNSF Railfan
very cool. nice a 2-8-0 steamer sweet. sweet horn's. sweet sound of those switchers. awesome catch.
Thank you very much Phillip yeah it was pretty neat seeing both steam and diesel for the power of the train.
Liberty Railfan Productions your welcome sir and i agree.
3:18 He though more about how the car was faster than the switchers than how the switchers where in the middle of the damm road!
Thank you for watching Break-Van-Man, greetings from the Black River & Western.. Yup another one that either had to try to beat the train or simply not paying attention to the road thinking there is no such thing as a train is going to cross here.
Good job Adam!
Thank you for watching Dante I know you are a crossing person and at 3:15 that car almost had a bad day. Really gates would be good there or grade separate if possible.
@@LibertyRailfan Agreed. If the New Hope & Ivyland crossings have gates, then so should the BR&W.
@@Ih8kone the only thing is that the New Hope & Ivyland is a more busier line than the Black River also in different states.
@@Ih8kone even New Jersey Transit still has a few gateless crossings. Even the New York City Subway has a few gateless crossings but they are private.
@@Ih8kone if you want to see a great crossing: th-cam.com/video/wXI1y0HyA-Y/w-d-xo.html start at 40:58

Liberty Railfan If I was a cop, I would've revoked his license.
Great video!
Thank you very much RailBrothers greetings from the Black River & Western Railroad.
Liberty Railfan In lieu of gates, the crossings could also be photo-enforced with cameras.
Great work Adam!
Thank you very much Casey greetings from the BR&WRR
That crossing on Toad Lane received a slight upgrade.
Yes the last time I was there at Toad Lane I noticed newer crossing equipment.
@@LibertyRailfan Notice the house next to the railroad track has a garden railway.
@@Ih8kone it used to operate each time an actual train would go by, but the last few times it has been off/not running.
@@LibertyRailfan I know. And it looks really nice too. What a shame.
Loved the idiot at 3:20 locking his brakes up, did he not knw why the signals were flashing ?
Thank you very much Richard greetings from the Black River & Western Railroad.

Liberty Railfan You must wait for the train to pass. Gates or no, IT'S THE LAW!
Nice catch Adam, I still don't understand the flashing red little light on top of the crossing at 9:09
Thank you very much Nate those are older versions of crossing active lights for the train crew.. To alert the crew the crossing is function since they can't see the flashers blinking. Newer crossings especially on the Class 1 railroads they have tiny holes on the sides of the flasher fixtures which those alert the crew / engineer that the crossing is working.
Your welcome Adam, I still find it cool. On the newer crossings I knew about the side holes, but the older ones I don't know so much
NBVideos Presents just an older version of those new type little holes..
Liberty Railfan Productions OK, like I said earlier, I find them interesting
Hey great video can you subscribe my friend Hudson railfan productions thanks he love your video
Did anyone else notice the car at 3:17
ya he was being a dumbass
I guess he never saw the train or the lights or heard the horn or the bells... I actually have another video of just the almost incident.. bit.ly/2f1Es5j

Thank you very much Jersey Johnnie, greetings from the Black River & Western RR..
You can hear that chugging sound a mile away
Thank you for watching Thomas yup absolutely that's what is great about the area you can hear it coming, no other highways or industry nearby to drown out the noise of #60. BTW sorry for the late response sometimes notifications don't come through.
If you have a red flag, THAT will stop the cars
Sometimes the flaggers have gotten hit, rare yes but it has happened..
@@LibertyRailfan Oooof.
офигеть настоящий паровоз лайк вам
Thank you very much МАРАТ СИБИРСКИЙ greetings from the Black River & Western Railroad.
What the hell are all those drivers doing..... as for the one that locked up.....
Thank you for watching Daryl, at what part of the video min & sec ? I assume you are talking about the mechanics of the loco as they are old..
Sorry.. no no. I meant the car drivers :)

Liberty Railfan These crossings need some gates.
I just replied to your other comment, sorry for the delay.
Great video!
Thank you very much Middle Georgia Railfan greetings from Flemington, NJ.. Happy New Year.
Liberty Railfan You should call the fuzz on those jackass drivers that ignore the signals
