How much traffic is reported
The busiest crossing at W Krause Rd on Tazewell & Peoria Railroad, Inc. is credited with 11 train movements a day; the middle of the range across all 45 is 2. These are counts the operating railroad reported to the FRA, not measurements, and a crossing's figure can be several years old.

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.
