How much traffic is reported

The busiest crossing at Hebron Parkway on Denton County Transportation Authority is credited with 67 train movements a day; the middle of the range across all 16 is 67. 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 60 mph.

Warning devices

16 of the 16 crossings carry gates and 0 have flashing lights without gates. Every crossing here has an active warning device. The inventory describes equipment, not how a crossing performs.

Horns and quiet zones

13 of the crossings (81%) 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 3 reported incidents at these crossings since 2016. Incident counts follow traffic and exposure as much as anything about a crossing itself.

  • Lake Park Road — 2 reported incidents
  • Bennett Lane — 1 reported incident

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.
