How much traffic is reported

The busiest crossing at 6th St on BNSF Railway Company is credited with 14 train movements a day; the middle of the range across all 18 is 2. 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 49 mph.

Warning devices

6 of the 18 crossings carry gates and 1 have flashing lights without gates. 11 (61%) 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

No crossing here is recorded under a whistle ban, so trains sound the standard horn pattern on approach.

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.
