Crossings / Kentucky / South Carrollton
South Carrollton
Kentucky.
The federal crossing inventory lists 15 public at-grade railroad crossings in South Carrollton, KY, operated by one railroad. Each carries a single track.
Who runs the track
CSX Transportation operates 15 of the crossings here, 100% of the total.
Train services crossing these streets: freight (15).
How much traffic is reported
No through-train movements are reported at any crossing here. That usually means industrial or yard track rather than a route with scheduled traffic, but a blank field is also how the inventory records "not counted".
The highest timetable speed recorded at any crossing here is 25 mph.
Warning devices
0 of the 15 crossings carry gates and 4 have flashing lights without gates. 11 (73%) 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 1 reported incident at these crossings since 2016. Incident counts follow traffic and exposure as much as anything about a crossing itself.
- KY-181 — 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.
