The federal crossing inventory lists 11 public at-grade railroad crossings in Zeeland, MI, operated by one railroad. 3 of them carry more than one track.

Who runs the track

CSX Transportation operates 11 of the crossings here, 100% of the total.

Train services crossing these streets: freight (11), intercity (11) and shared use transit (1).

How much traffic is reported

The busiest crossing at 80th Avenue on CSX Transportation is credited with 4 train movements a day; the middle of the range across all 11 is 3. 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 65 mph.

Warning devices

10 of the 11 crossings carry gates and 1 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

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

Incident history

Form 57 records 2 reported incidents at these crossings since 2016. Incident counts follow traffic and exposure as much as anything about a crossing itself.

  • Seventy Second Avenue — 1 reported incident
  • 80th Avenue — 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.
