Crossings / Arkansas
Arkansas
crossings.
The federal crossing inventory lists 1,479 public at-grade crossings across the 64 Arkansas cities with at least ten of them. Fort Smith has the most at 114.
Union Pacific Railroad Company operates the most of them at 668, ahead of ARKANSAS MIDLAND RAILROAD COMPANY, INC. at 141.
63% of those crossings carry no active warning device (crossbucks, a stop sign or nothing recorded) against 26% with gates.
Crossing counts follow how much track runs through a place, not how busy or how loud it is. A city with many short industrial spurs will list more crossings than one with a single mainline carrying far more trains.
