Crossings / Colorado / Fort Morgan
Fort Morgan
Colorado.
The federal crossing inventory lists 16 public at-grade railroad crossings in Fort Morgan, CO, operated by one railroad. 6 of them carry more than one track.
Who runs the track
BNSF Railway Company operates 16 of the crossings here, 100% of the total.
Train services crossing these streets: freight (16) and intercity (13).
How much traffic is reported
The busiest crossing at W Platte Ave on BNSF Railway Company is credited with 24 train movements a day; the middle of the range across all 16 is 18. These are counts the operating railroad reported to the FRA, not measurements, and a crossing's figure can be several years old.
The highest timetable speed recorded at any crossing here is 79 mph.
Warning devices
11 of the 16 crossings carry gates and 1 have flashing lights without gates. 4 (25%) have neither, which means crossbucks, a stop sign, or no marking the inventory records at all. The inventory describes equipment, not how a crossing performs.
Horns and quiet zones
6 of the crossings (38%) are recorded under a whistle ban. A quiet zone is not silence: horns still sound for emergencies, track workers and at the engineer's discretion, and the status in the inventory is only as current as the last railroad filing.
Incident history
Form 57 records no reported incident at any of these crossings since 2016. That is the reporting record, not a guarantee about any crossing.
What this page is not
This is a summary of a federal inventory, not a measurement and not a rating. RailContext does not score crossings, streets or towns, and nothing here says a crossing is safe or unsafe, or that a neighbourhood is quiet or loud. Train counts are estimates the operating railroad filed, sometimes years ago, and a quiet zone does not guarantee silence.
To see the individual crossings nearest one address rather than a whole city, use the address check.
